Mid-Missouri Home and Garden Show in Columbia, Missouri

February 28 - March 1

They are predicting snow this weekend so why not spend a family afternoon at the Hearnes Center at the annual Mid-Missouri Home and Garden show.  I enjoy visiting with the different businesses and community groups.  My children enjoy the large amount of free marketing materials they get to pick up.  Boone Electric is usually there and each year they give away tree seedlings.  We have several planted in the backyard and they are doing great!

The show also features Jim Parks, host of HGTV's "New Spaces" on the expo stage. 

The show is set in the Hearnes Center Field house located on the campus of the University of Missouri- Columbia.  The hours of the event will be from 2 to 8 pm Friday, 10 am - 8:00 pm Saturday, and 10 am - 4:00 pm Sunday.  Admission is $5 per person or free for children younger than 12.   Parking is available on the east side of the Hearnes Center.
