FARMINGTON — The Mt. Blue Area Garden Club is invited the public to attend its November meeting, which will feature Aaron Bowden, of Koboku Bonsai Art and Pottery.
The meeting is at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 21, at Trinity United Methodist Church, U.S. Route 2.

Bonsai was introduced by Zen Buddhism in the far east many centuries ago.
Making its way to China, it was known then as Pun-Sai. Bonsai, some many years later was introduced to Japan, where soon after the cultivation for bonsai flourished and became more of the art form it is known as today, according to a news release from the club.
