Flowers in the Snow at the RI Spring Flower and Garden Show

Are you dreaming of color our snow-covered landscape hasn’t provided in months? If so, you’re in luck because the Rhode Island Spring Flower and Garden Show returns to the Convention Center Feb 19 – Feb 22. This year’s show invites attendees to come in from the cold and dream of spring while exploring hands-on gardening displays.

The theme for the Flower and Garden Show is Garden Adventures and will show veteran gardeners and those just curious how to create whimsical outdoor living spaces that are as fun for children to explore as for adults to create.

On display this year will be a life-sized fairy house where children can pretend they live among the wee folk, a tree house ready for adventure, and a tunnel garden that provides fuel for childhood’s innocent secrets.

In addition to the hands-on displays will be lectures and demonstrations on everything from seed starting to growing in the shade, beekeeping and composting.

The Adventure Zone, on the fifth floor of the Convention Center, is packed with fun and educational experiences for kids. Families can take part in nature demonstrations, explore touch tanks, go on scavenger hunts, and enjoy puppet shows and face painting.

The RI Spring Flower and Garden Show promises a fun family day and attendees will come away with not only wonderful memories, but all the cutting-edge information needed to create the outdoor living space of their dreams in their own backyard.

The RI Spring Flower and Garden Show takes place Feb 19 – Feb 22 at the RI Convention Center. For tickets and information, visit flowershow.com
