Guest speaker will be Brie Arthur, best-selling gardening author and correspondent on the PBS Television show “Growing a Greener World.” The event begins at 7 p.m. at the UGA Extension – Coweta County Center on Pine Road in Newnan.

For Arthur, a flower bed is not only a great place to grow blooming plants but also good things to eat like tomatoes and other vegetables. Find out how she does it at the October BYA meeting.
