Scattering Grounds
The scattering ground is nestled in a tranquil old growth forest, at the top of Maple Hill Avenue, the highest point in Glenwood Cemetery.
A winding path leads past mature trees and over an untouched forest floor which in spring comes alive with a variety wild flowers including jack-in-the-pulpit.
This is a beautiful and tranquil setting for those who choose to have their ashes scattered. Memorial stones or plaques may be purchased to commemorate loved ones.
About Glenwood's Scattering Grounds
1
Licensed and Protected
While it is legal to scatter cremated remains on your own property or crown land in Ontario, by choosing to utilize a licensed cemetery you can be confident that the property will not change hands and be redeveloped in the future.
2
Eco-Friendly
The distribution of cremated remains over a wide area increases the rate at which the remains will be re-absorbed into the earth. This is especially true in the undisturbed forest floor where Glenwood's scattering grounds are located.
3
Affordable
Scattering fees are one of Glenwood's most affordable services. Scattering costs just a fraction of the cost of a burial or columbarium, and your fees include a 5" x 2" plaque and the use of a scattering device.
