Our Park Experiences
Every part of the park has been thoughtfully created to help families reconnect with loved ones in a setting filled with natural beauty, wildlife and quiet spaces to reflect.
Whether visiting for remembrance, attending a service or simply taking time to walk through the park, Colney Park offers a calm and uplifting place to pause, reflect and remember.
Woodland Experience
These leafy, magical wonderlands provide solace from grief. Dominated by trees, woodland flowers, deer, birds and butterflies. GreenAcres woodlands hold an important cultural heritage and are sustainably maintained to avoid overcrowding and disease damage. This ensures a healthy ecosystem that benefits future generations of families, wildlife and nature.
Meadow Experience
Our flower-rich meadows are vital to our commitment to sustainable rewilding. The Meadow Experience provides a reminder of the former abundance of wildflowers in the British countryside. Meadow grasses within GreenAcres are encouraged to grow long, pathways are mowed for walkers to access the areas, and the scent of wildflowers, herbs and grass help generate a sense of calm.
Orchard Experience
GreenAcres Orchards may be small, but they’re so important if you’re looking for a specific connection from your past. Vital for wildlife and associated with home-cooked pies, crumbles and jam making, they lend themselves to blossoming park trees where families can literally gather the fruit of their loved ones.
Lawn Experience
A cherished British tradition, GreenAcres lawns are lush, manicured grass areas that are maintained to look vibrant and healthy throughout the year. Our lawn areas include seasonal flowers, bushes, shrubs, memorial options and places for people to sit and reflect in a peaceful environment.
Garden Experience
Gardens have long been considered as special private places for people to relax, reflect and rebuild. They also provide an easy space for like-minded communities to connect. GreenAcres Gardens come in a variety of formats and serve to support people for many years as they become more established, unique and a personal legacy to remaining family members.
