Grab your trowels and gather your floor plans because the Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show returns to the David L. Lawrence Convention Center today.

Bringing together western Pennsylvania homeowners annually for 10 days of gardening tips and home improvement strategies over 10 acres, this year the show is adding a Cabin in the Woods exhibit and demonstrations by the Pittsburgh Bonsai Society.

Cabin in the Woods, presented by Weaver Barns, showcases one of the company’s Amish built cabins and an interior by the Western Pennsylvania Chapter of the American Society of Interior Designers. The Pittsburgh Bonsai Society is making its first appearance at the show, exhibiting miniature trees and providing demonstrations and instructions on how to care for the plants. 

Returning for a second year is the Farm to Table Local Food Expo, featuring regional providers of produce, meats, cheeses, honey, wines and spirits. Download the Western Pennsylvania Farm-to-Table Guide here.
