Steve Lincoln was the Vice President of a major retail nursery chain for 10 years prior to changing course and starting Kindred Oaks. He brings tremendous business experience to this endeavor as well as a strong work ethic that keeps him forever busy with projects. With never-ending energy, nothing is ever left undone!

Elaine Lincoln was a professional wedding photographer for many years prior to and during the raising of her three children, and then turned to the garden industry so she could stay at home with her kids. She is now able to combine those passions that are the spirit of Kindred Oaks!!
