Say hello to one of Meadowvale Cemetery, Cremation and Funeral Centre’s cutest visitors!

Captured by staff member Sarah Mannone, this curious squirrel reminds us that our cemeteries at Mount Pleasant Group are not only places of remembrance but also vibrant ecosystems full of life. Next time you visit, keep an eye out for our furry friends and remember to admire from a distance.

Did you know? Black Walnut trees have a fascinating trait called allelopathy. They release biochemicals that can inhibit the growth of other plants nearby. Beyond this unique survival strategy, Black Walnuts hold deep cultural significance for many Indigenous communities and provide a rich source of protein.

At Mount Pleasant Group, we care for hundreds of tree species across our cemeteries, each with its own fascinating role in the ecosystem. Black Walnuts are just one example of how nature shapes and sustains life in our spaces.
