Home and Garden Show

Our show draws an average of 650 visitors to learn from educational, hourly speakers and browse some of the best small business vendors in our area.  We love to see everyone there and hope to offer a take-away to everyone, whether that be home gardening advise, a few plants, a beautiful piece of art, a delicious goody, or an exciting memory!
