Shutters are snapping as entries come in for the Lincoln Garden Club’s nature photo contest.
Anyone who lives in Lincoln is encouraged to submit photos by May 26. The event will help the garden club finance a horticultural intern at the New England Wildflower Society who will design and install a native plant garden at Lincoln’s Station Park.
Photos submitted to the contest will be displayed at the Pierce House during the Lincoln Garden Club’s champagne reception on Sunday, June 7 from 5-7 p.m. Those in attendance will vote for their favorite pictures and elect one winner for each of three categories—landscape, fauna and flora. Winners will be notified by email by June 9. For more information on the contest, see this Lincoln Squirrel news acorn or the contest rules.
Also on June 7 is the garden club’s self-guided Garden Tour from 1-5 p.m. Those who purchase a Garden Tour ticket will get admission to the champagne reception, which in addition to the photo exhibit will feature live music, food prepared by Lincoln Garden Club members and a silent auction. Tickets are $45 per person in advance or $50 on June 7. For more information, visit the Lincoln Garden Club website.
