Join our Latrobe BPW group to tour the demonstration gardens at
the Donohoe Center known as the Richard E. Thorn Memorial Gardens, feature annual and perennial plants, herbs, spring ephemerals, and more. The "cottage garden" is planted with tried-and-true flowers, and a vegetable plot shows backyard growers how to raise fresh produce. The site also includes deer-resistant plants, a pollinator-friendly garden, and a composting area.
The Welcome Garden is the first one encountered when entering the gardens from the front parking lot. Native and drought-tolerant shrubs and perennials lay the foundation for the garden. Intermixing new and exciting annual flowers creates an ever-changing garden design from year to year. In 2026, the Welcome Garden will display a red, white, and blue theme to celebrate America's 250th birthday.
Master Gardeners have put together plant lists and/or maps for many of the garden areas. Our tour guides are experienced Master Gardners, Linda Sinemus and Mary Niezlewski who is the lead for the Day Lily garden.
Located at 214 Donohoe Road, Greensburg, PA 15601.
We will meet afterwards at J. Corks for appetizers, drinks or a meal outdoor dining weather permitting!
