Residents are invited to “Lincoln by the Land,” a talk hosted by the Lincoln Land Conservation Trust about Lincoln’s landscapes with Sue Klem, an LLCT board member and local author of The Nature of Lincoln. Her talk, which begins at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 20 in the Lincoln Public Library, will explore Lincoln’s rugged landscape of hills, ponds, streams, fields, swamp, and woods, and consider what forces created them. Copies of The Nature of Lincoln will be for sale.
Also on Wednesday, the town’s Leaf Blower Study Committee invites residents to meet Dan Mabe, president of the Greenstation, a West Coast sustainable landscape equipment and consulting company. Mabe will discuss steps other communities are taking to reduce noise and air pollution from industrialized landscape practices, describe “green zones” and demonstrate innovative equipment.
Mabe will speak in the Donaldson Room in the Town Office Building at two different times—from 7:30-8:30 a.m. and again from 7:30-8:30 p.m. Please RSVP to Lincoln Conservation Director Thomas Gumbart (781-259-2612 or gumbartt@lincolntown.org) to indicate which session you’d like to attend.
