Join us on the first Sunday of December, when Wreaths Across Canada will conduct a wreath-laying ceremony at the National Military Cemetery at Beechwood Cemetery in Ottawa. Members of the public are invited to lay a wreath for a fallen member of our military.

Wreaths are created and locally sourced (Ottawa Ontario area)by Fallen Soldier Wreaths, a group led by Jody and Bob Tessier, and involved community members which include 16 families and hundreds of acres of land. 

With over 225,000 deceased members of the Canadian Armed Forces buried in cemeteries coast-to-coast, WREATHS ACROSS CANADA encourages Canadians to make a personal connection with veterans, interred at burial sites, by placing an eco-friendly grapevine wreath, decorated with winter berries, evergreen, and burlap bow at their headstones. This ceremony is carried out on the first Sunday of December, at a time of year when families typically begin to gather.

Your donation helps us reach our goal of placing a wreath on EVERY gravesite EVERY year.
