When you think London, you might not think wine. But we do. So much so, in fact, that we've brought our love for dry, unique wines to the top of the Beamsville Bench to make what we love to drink, for you, right here in Canada. This may be our second home. But we'll soon be your first choice for wineries. We just know it. 

 
This is the time of year that the Beamsville & District Lions Club gears up for our Annual Fall Food Drive in support of Community Care of West Niagara. This remarkable event has been 28 years in the making and with your help we believe it will be our best year ever.
 
We invite you to become part of this great community effort. The date is Saturday, September 23, 2017 and there are many ways for you to become involved!  Click on the link below for more details!  To get an idea of what items are really needed; check out our  Wish List

What is the Homecoming Festival?  An all-inclusive community celebration to welcome all who call Lincoln 'home' & those with roots in our Town to 'come home'.
This event will be the Town of Lincoln's Canada 150 Legacy Project and is a 3-day event focusing on three themes to highlight the 'life and times' of our Town over 150+ years and into the future.
  1. Cultural Life & Times: Celebrating our Town's rich social heritage - history and cultural identities of our people and natural & built landscape.
     
  2. Economic Life & Times: Celebrating the evolution of business sectors that have contributed to the economic development and wellbeing of our Town over the years and to provide a glimpse into its future as it grows and flourishes as a "Centre of Excellence for Agriculture"
     
  3. Civic Life & Times: Celebrating 'home grown' leaders (past & present) who have distinguished themselves as role models and community builders locally and beyond.
