Lendonwood Gardens attracts visitors for many reasons: vivid seasonal color, the quiet and serenity of nature, year-round shades and textures, and a rich source of gardening ideas. More and more, however, Lendonwood is attracting volunteers who want to help ensure the Gardens' future as a major attraction in northeast Oklahoma.

One of the Gardens' first volunteer organizations is the Lendonwood League. Members of the League serve as volunteer guides, escorting small groups and bus-tour groups through the Gardens. League members are trained to share information about the history of the Gardens, the plantings and the Tea House, as well as answering questions that arise. Members often host visitors with tea service in the Tea House.
