Annual Spring Home & Garden Show celebrates 13 years in The Woodlands March 7 & 8

THE WOODLANDS, Texas -- The 13th Annual Spring Home & Garden Show The Woodlands will be held at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel & Convention Center, 1601 Lake Robbins Drive, on Saturday and Sunday, March 7 and 8, 2015.

Ring in spring by immersing yourself in all the trappings of an elegant home and garden at the one-stop show, where homeowners will meet contractors and specialists who can deliver, install and transform virtually every aspect of residential living. Homeowners planning renovations to their homes, whether inside or out, need to make this show one of the first steps in the process.

“The 2015 Spring Home & Garden Show is the 25th event we’ve held in The Woodlands, marking 13 years of inspiring the area’s residents,” said Tony Wood, president of Texwood Shows Inc., producer of the annual spring and fall home and garden shows in The Woodlands. “Many residents of the community anticipate our annual shows as a way to learn what’s new and what’s changed, and have come to depend on our expert exhibitors and vendors to give them a jump start on the seasons’ trends. We see this happening year after year as attendance at our shows in The Woodlands continues to grow, most recently almost reaching the 6,500 mark.”

Home cooking will receive special attention at the spring show with a Wilsonart quartz countertop feature area and Cunningham Gas’ crowd-favorite outdoor cooking stage. New to the show in 2015 is the Ferguson Kitchen & Bath Lighting Gallery Thermador Cooking Stage featuring Chef Robbie, the preeminent expert on Thermador appliances, who will provide four cooking demonstrations each day. And on Sunday, March 8, attendees can shop for fresh local produce, artisan cheeses, olive oil, eggs, organic meats, prepared foods, natural soaps and much more at the Grogan’s Mill Farmers Market.

“In many cases, homeowners can compare products, get bids and get projects started while they are at the show,” said Wood. “It's a great way to see a wide range of possibilities – including some they never knew existed.”

Experts in residential living will be on hand to offer live seminars and question-and-answer sessions addressing specific situations and concerns. Among the experts scheduled to appear are: Randy Lemmon, host of Newsradio 740 KTRH’s Gardenline; lighting expert Joann Ontiveros of Carol’s Lighting; home automation expert Kevin Buchanan of Home Entertainment Inc.; and custom kitchen designer John Johnston, president of Designer Kitchens.

“We always strive to give back to our host communities,” Wood said, “I am pleased to announce that The Woodlands Waterway Arts Festival has been selected as the charity partner of the 13th Annual Spring Home & Garden Show The Woodlands.”
