ABOUT OUR FOREST
Camp Highroad’s EcoEternity Forest provides a place to remember loved ones and a beautiful, ecologically friendly, and peaceful resting place for cremated remains. At the EcoEternity Forest, ashes are placed in biodegradable urns and buried at the roots of memorial trees. Over time, the roots will absorb the nutrients and create a living memorial for friends and family to visit for generations.
Our EcoEternity Forest is located within an hour’s drive of most of Northern Virginia. Midway between Middleburg and Leesburg, fifty acres of beautiful, forested land have been set apart for the EcoEternity Forest at Highroad, with two of those acres currently containing trees available for lease. All of the money generated by the forest goes directly to Camp Highroad, helping to provide programming for children and preserving the many forested acres on the 620 acre property.
Internment services at the forest are customizable and meant to fit the desires of the family. We understand that the interment often falls within a difficult time of mourning, and we desire to assist you in any way we can during the interment service.
TIMING & SCHEDULING
At EcoEternity Forest at Camp Highroad, we operate differently from a traditional funeral home. Our services are not designed for immediate turnarounds, and we are not staffed to accommodate short-notice interments.
We schedule interments only after the family has received the cremated remains from their cremation provider, and once they are ready to move forward in a calm and thoughtful way. This approach allows us to provide each family with the time, attention, and care they deserve.
Because of this, we strongly encourage families to make arrangements and preparations ahead of time whenever possible. Planning in advance ensures we can support you more fully and helps create a more meaningful, stress-free experience when the time comes.
