You just know that spring is here when Homestead Gardens rolls out their annual flower show. This is the 27th one and it opens this weekend.
Once again, Homestead’s talented team has created themed vignettes using thousands of flowers, shrubs, trees, furnishings and more to showcase nature’s influence on how we live, work and play. From Sun and Sea and Scenic Meadows to Farm to Table and Backyard Living, you will be presented with an array of color, ideas, information and the tools you need to create your own ‘Feast of Color’. The Home & Garden Expo is free and open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. weekdays, 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Sunday.
Workshops and demonstrations will be held during the week.
