North Creek Newbie

Robyn Lomenzo, Section Grower


You’re in good hands with our new Section Grower, Robyn Lomenzo! Prior to North Creek, Robyn honed her horticultural skills alongside Catherine Smith at Redbud Native Plant Nursery and Anne-Marie McMahon of Sugarbush Nursery. She also completed an internship at the Tyler Arboretum in Media, PA.

A graduate of West Chester University, Robyn holds a bachelor of science in Biology with a concentration in Ecology & Conservation. While at WCU she studied under her mentor, Dr. Jessica Schedlbauer. It was here that Robyn gained greater insight for Dr. Schedlbauer’s research on plant ecophysiology and ecosystem ecology. In addition to native plants, Robyn has a very keen interest in the strengths and limitations of local and regional food systems and the role of supply chains of food from field to plate.

Please join us in welcoming Robyn to the North Creek family – we’re sure glad to have her on our team!
