The annual Tacoma Home + Garden Show at the Tacoma Dome is the unofficial sign that longer spring days are around the corner. Get inspired as you meander through huge and elaborate display gardens that make you feel like you are in a secret garden. Tour model homes and plan your next kitchen and bath renovation. Learn how to beautify your home, grow fruits and veggies, and be sustainable from experts. Thanks to Hunt’s Services, admission is free on opening day, Jan. 29.
