Backyard Assn. to meet

Natural meadows are filled with native flowers, grasses, and broadleaf plants. Butterfly and insect species flourish in healthy meadows of the southeast. Teresa Mullins, horticulturist and Master Gardener, will teach gardeners how to bring the beauty of a meadow into a cultivated setting, using wildflowers suited for southern gardens. In celebration of Earth Day, Backyard participants will take home plants to add to their gardens that are beneficial to the environment.

The Backyard Association, sponsored by Coweta County Extension Service, is open to the public and meets at 7 pm the second Tuesday evening of each month except December. Reservations are required and admission is free. The sessions are held at the Coweta County Extension Service, 21 East Washington Street in Newnan. For more information, contact 770-254-2620.
