Everything you need to get the most out of your first year.
Welcome from the President
We are so glad you joined the Lincoln Garden Club. You are now part of a community that has been cultivating knowledge, friendship, and beautiful spaces since 1928.
How meetings work
We meet monthly at Bemis Hall. Meetings begin with social time, a brief business update, and a featured speaker or program. Coffee is always on.
Upcoming calendar
See the next meetings, workshops, and garden tours on the Calendar & Events page.
Meet the officers
Our officers and committee chairs are your go-to people. A full directory of leadership is available on the Committees page.
