Description
Tree Dedication with a Plaque
To make this an extra special Tree Dedication, we include a wooden tree plaque next to your tree. This will be engraved with words of your choice.
No waste, no gift wrapping, and no transport! This tree will look beautiful in its natural location and will last for many years to come.
What happens when you make a Tree Dedication with a Plaque with Make it Wild?
How it works
We will place a wooden plaque engraved with your words next to your dedicated tree at one of our beautiful North Yorkshire nature reserves, or our partner site in the Peak District near Buxton.
We will protect the tree and we will look after it for decades to come.
Please let us know the wording you would like, both on your Certificate of Dedication, and your plaque. And leave the rest to us!
What you will get
- A young native woodland tree, in one of our beautiful Nature Reserves
- A wooden plaque engraved with your chosen wording, next to the tree
- A personalised certificate of dedication, with your chosen wording, and a map showing the precise location of the tree, via email
- When the plaque has been made, we will place it by the tree and send you a photograph, by email (this can take three to four weeks)
- The satisfaction of contributing to the creation of precious habitat for the many species which rely on woodland – thereby improving biodiversity
- The joy of knowing you have planted a beautiful tree which will live for decades
- The pride of ‘doing your bit’ to minimise the impact of climate change by planting a tree which will absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
- You may be able to visit the tree (arrangements depend on location – see more info)
- These trees, with plaques, are dedicated ‘forever’
What our customers say
“We bought a tree dedication as a wedding present. We chose Make it Wild as they dedicate a specific tree rather than a random one. This means our bride and groom can visit their tree for years to come and watch it grow. Oh – and the service we received was amazing! We’d left it late, and the team at Make It Wild went over and above to make sure everything was ready in time for the big day. This is a lovely project – and an important one too! Would highly recommend.” Val, Yorkshire

For more information about our Ts & Cs, the sites, ages and species of the trees and access, please read this page.
Please note – The words on your plaque will remain legible for at least three years. We have found that after around five years, the words may become less visible. At this time, if this is of concern to you, please get in touch and we can discuss a replacement plaque. Many of our customers feel that this ‘return to nature’ is acceptable.
