Wednesday Work Days

July 16, 2025 - 10:00am - 12:00pm

Fee: Free.
Registration: Advance registration encouraged. Click here to register online. Work days are weather dependent. If you have registered in advance, we will contact you if we are cancelling due to inclement weather.

The Lynden land team is kicking off 2025 by launching a new series of Wednesday Work Days, a weekly volunteer opportunity on the grounds. Whether you are looking for a few hours of volunteer work or want a weekly activity that keeps you outside, you are welcome to join us on Wednesday mornings from 10 am to 12 noon. Projects vary from season to season; for the next few months, you will work alongside land staff to pull herbaceous invasive species in our natural areas, as well as help accomplish other projects around the grounds to enhance biodiversity and take care of the native flora and fauna. No experience is necessary, though you are encouraged to bring your favorite gardening gloves and digging tools if you have them. Water, snacks, and additional tools will be provided.

Land Stewardship at Lynden
The Lynden Sculpture Garden is transforming its natural habitats and formal landscapes into sustainable and diverse ecosystems that highlight their natural beauty. Our goal is to steward healthy habitats for an array of native plants and wildlife while adding a vibrant mosaic of color and texture to this sculptural landscape through every season. With over 40 acres and more than half a dozen specialized garden spaces, the Lynden provides many volunteer and learning opportunities, from removing invasive species to planting new trees and plugs, weeding, pruning, collecting, and spreading seeds. With a small land staff, volunteer help is essential to the evolution and restoration of the Lynden grounds.

FRIENDS OF GARDEN PATH: DAY OF WORK AND CELEBRATION

July 16, 2025 - 10:00am - 2:00pm

Free
Registration: Advance registration is encouraged. Click here to register online.

Garden Path was created by Paul Druecke in 2014 as a way to connect integral parts of the Lynden experience that might be overlooked. The most significant of these was the people whose vocation it was to maintain the grounds and sculptures.

We're expanding this idea in 2025 with the creation of the Friends of Garden Path. We launch the Friends with a day to recognize the efforts of volunteers, whose work is increasingly significant for cultural institutions. Lynden’s staff has been restoring the path, and we’ll help them add the finishing touches: smoothing/grading the path, putting down a paper weed barrier, and mulching the path from end to end.

We’ll celebrate with snacks and a slideshow, and we’ll trade favorite Lynden stories and make plans for next year’s celebration. In 2026 we will honor Bob Retko, Lynden’s long time land manager. Bob, since retired, worked with Paul on Garden Path back in 2014.

Tools, gloves, and snacks will be provided. Please dress for the weather.
