Steps Along the Way
WPC's Milestones in 2004
Increasing Beautiful Public Landscapes
With the addition of three new community gateway gardens in Mercer County, WPC is helping beautify a total of 400,000 square feet of public landscaping with annual flowers and perennial shrubs and plants. If all of these annuals and perennials were planted in a row they would reach from Pittsburgh to the West Virginia border. These vibrant public greenspaces brighten urban and suburban communities, small town neighborhoods, business districts, schools and roadsides in 20 counties across western Pennsylvania.
Mercer County is our newest partner in enhancing towns and cities through community gardens. Through the work of the county, local municipalities and community volunteers, these gardens are uplifting the environment of neighborhoods in Mercer Borough, Farrell and Hermitage.
