He admits, “I have always known about the House + Garden Show, but I never thought of exhibiting or visiting. I am glad I did this year. I am able to network with buyers, potential partners and patrons.” He said that it was such platforms that his creations needed in order to expand.
One jovial couple, Garth and Helen Mulder from Hillcrest, have visited the House + Garden Show since its inception. “We never miss it for the world. It is a beautiful shopping experience for us, and we always encourage our grandchildren to take part, too.
