The 4th annual Ultimate Home and Garden Show is returning to Plant City July 8 and 9 at the Strawberry
Festival Grounds Grimes Hall.
The show has officially rebranded in efforts to make the event more inclusive and now offers home decor and a plant expo on top of the 100-plus home vendors and Florida Licensed Contractors. There will also be a Shabby Chic and Home Decor Market available in the expo hall.
“You’re going to get a little bit of everything for your home at this show,” Sonya Bradley, co-owner and Marketing Director of Simply Events, said. “It’s a great place to start to get ideas. These guys know pretty much everything about the home. Yes, they have products to sell you but they also have a whole brain of information if you are looking to update, if you’re thinking of buying a new home, because Tampa Bay is one of the number one real-estate markets, so anyone can come to one of these.”
There are also seminars throughout the weekend ranging from how to ensure your home is energy efficient to DIY things you can do at home without hiring a professional.
Lowe’s Home Improvement specialists will be offering a few seminars, as well and a Shabby Chic artist, Market 516, will be offering two seminars a day on how to recreate or up-cycle your current furniture, as well as a seminar on how to create different items for the home.
The show is for more than simply home design, said Bradley. This year the event features four plant venders, including a yard art vendor as well as Lowe’s vendor and a landscaper.
“Come out if you want to learn to do something or if you’re looking to do something and you’re going to find everything in the same location,” Bradley said.
