Master Plan
Goodell Gardens & Homestead will be developed according to the
Master Plan prepared by Marshall - Tyler - Rausch, LLC in
Pittsburgh. A display of a more detailed Master Plan map, along with
a history exhibit about the farm and family, can be found in the
Visitor's Center at Goodell Gardens and Homestead.
The current display gardens open to the public include the
one-acre Goodell Heritage Garden, featuring unique, native and
non-native, perennial and tree species, and the Pollinator Garden. A
5-acre Events Lawn (showcasing our reconstructed, early 1800's barn) and
surrounding Full-Sun Garden (beginning in 2010) are the most recent
developments at Goodell Gardens.
Future developments at the Gardens will include Teaching Gardens,
Family Gardens, Formal Gardens, Japanese Gardens and an Overlook Garden.
In addition, the plans call for a Bulb Meadow, and a Lilac Hill.

hope to become (estimated completion date: 2050).
