SPRINGVALE - The Southern Maine Garden Club will meet at the Springvale Library on Jan. 20 at 6:30 p.m. when the guest speakers will be Chris and John Bozak, owners of Berry Best Farm in Lebanon.

The Bozaks will discuss growing blueberries, raspberries and peaches.

Chris Bozak's been around blueberries all her life since her dad started the Lebanon blueberry farm back in 1955.
