Farmington Library

A new garden at the Farmington Library has been created by Lowe's Heroes, the volunteer program of home improvement retailer Lowe's. The project gives the library an outdoor green space for visitors and the local community to enjoy. Details about the garden's size, cost and planned uses have not been released, and the long Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette report has so far drawn little public response.

He invited readers in the Farmington area to attend and shared a link to the book's Amazon page. The event offers local readers a chance to hear about the novel directly and get signed copies.
