WGC is a non-profit organization governed by an all-volunteer board of trustees. We are the town cemetery where generations of Danvers inhabitants have chosen to spend eternal life. Located in the heart of Danvers, Walnut Grove provides the ideal location for local families to visit and remember their loved ones. The peaceful, beautiful and historic grounds have served as a sanctuary in which to h

In addition to thousands of available ground burial plots, the cemetery has a Columbarium garden with 96 niches, each niche accommodating 2 urns. The garden provides a quiet spot to reflect and remember.
