On Saturday, April 10, Polly Rooker with the Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency will present a free seminar on Creating a Backyard Habitat at Garr's Rental and Feed. The seminar begins at 9 a.m. Reservations are encouraged: call 615-754-2777. Garr's is located at 11610 Lebanon Road in Mt. Juliet.

The seminar will discuss how to make your backyard appealing to beautiful songbirds, hummingbirds, butterflies and the benefits of having them in your yard.

"Many people enjoy feeding birds throughout the winter, but don't know how to keep the birds in their yard once spring arrives," explained Roy Garr, president and owner of Garr's Rental and Feed. "This seminar will discuss specific plants, both annuals and perennials, to make your yard attractive to hummingbirds and butterflies."

The seminar will last approximately one-and-a-half hours and allow questions and answers throughout the session. Light refreshments will be served. Seating is limited, so reservations are encouraged. Call 615-754-2777 to reserve a spot.

Garr's Rental and Feed is open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. until 6 p.m. and from noon until 5 p.m. on Sunday. For more information, visit www.garrs.biz.
