Lakeshore Garden Masters
​
LGM is a group of Western Michigan gardeners who have transplanted themselves from the MSU Extension to establish an independent organization to further the enjoyment and knowledge of gardening in pleasant fellowship.
​
The Monet Garden, located in downtown Muskegon at the corner of Clay and Fifth Street, is the volunteer garden project of the Lakeshore Garden Masters.
​
Linda Hecksel is the Chairperson of the garden. She sets up work sessions for weeding, planting, thinning...all the normal garden work needed to keep the garden beautiful.
