Find Everything Under One Roof
This year’s Spring Show brings together home improvement experts, garden specialists, and interactive experiences designed to help homeowners refresh their spaces for the season. Across the show floor, guests can explore ideas for improving and enhancing their homes while discovering inspiration tailored to Central Florida living.
Garden lovers will find large-scale plant sales throughout the weekend. The Yard Stop of Mount Dora will showcase more than 1,000 square feet of flowers, plants, palm trees, vegetables, and herbs, with landscape designers available to offer guidance and help plan garden or landscape updates. Additional displays include a wide selection of plumerias from Just Plumerias, 500 square feet of orchids, and an assortment of cacti and succulents, making it easy to bring home something new for the season.
Throughout the weekend, guests can also enjoy gardening and cooking demonstrations, hands-on classes for all ages, and family activities that complement the show’s spring focus.
Learn from the Experts: Gardening & Cooking Stages
Spring programming centers around two featured stages offering practical advice and seasonal inspiration.
On the Gardening Stage, educator Leah Brooks leads Florida-focused sessions that explore learning gardens for children, backyard wildflower design, and growing fresh produce throughout the year. She is joined by additional gardening experts, including Astrid Pingshaw, who presents an introductory seminar on growing microgreens at home.
The Eat It and Like It Cooking Stage is hosted by Jesse Blanco of Eat It Florida, who leads live demonstrations throughout the weekend focused on seasonal cooking and at-home entertaining. Sessions highlight approachable dishes and techniques, from comforting chicken tortilla soup and crowd-friendly brunch ideas to building flavorful mocktails and elevating everyday kitchen staples.
