Traditional Burial

We are here to guide you whether you have an immediate need or you want to make arrangements for yourself and/or your family in advance. Walnut Grove’s beautiful grounds offer a wide selection of locations and views, with plenty of space for individuals or multiple lots for families.

Due to increased demand, a finite supply and our commitment to the Town of Danvers and its citizens, effective August 1, 2022, the Board of Trustees at Walnut Grove only allows sales of traditional burial lots to current Danvers residents or former Danvers residents with permission.

A current Danvers resident is defined as someone presently living in Danvers, MA for the last consecutive 12 months.

A former Danvers resident with permission must meet the following requirement: the deceased must be a former resident of Danvers for no less than five years (regardless of the number of years living outside of Danvers, MA).

A residency exception can be made if the deceased has immediate family interred at Walnut Grove Cemetery, including a mother, father, brother or sister. A request must be accompanied by a letter, signed by the next of kin and notarized, requesting burial at Walnut Grove Cemetery with the years of residency and the former Danvers, MA address of the deceased provided. The Board of Trustees has the right to make the final decision on former residency requests.

For any questions, please contact the office at 978-774-1024.

Each Traditional Burial Lot accommodates 1 casket and up to 4 urns.

In addition to traditional burial lots, Walnut Grove also has a designated area for cremation lots as well as the option to choose a final resting place in a niche within a columbarium.

Our burial lot price includes perpetual care and the assurance that Walnut Grove will provide a serene, beautiful place of eternal rest for your loved one and a welcoming location for family and friends to visit.
