Bedford County, PA — The Bedford County Chamber of Commerce invites one and all to the 2023 Home, Garden, Lifestyle & Outdoors Show, presented in partnership with Juniata Trading Co. and State Farm Agents Matt Randall and Michael Meehan.
“The Home Show has been our signature celebration of spring for twenty-five years,” said Chamber President-CEO Kellie Goodman Shaffer,“ and this show has grown and evolved to reflect the needs of our businesses and the interests of the community.”
Blaine Smith, owner of Juniata Trading Company was instrumental in adding the “Outdoors” features to the show three years ago.
“With the pandemic limiting indoor activities, it was a perfect opportunity to showcase what the great outdoors and Juniata Trading Co. have to offer,” recalled Smith. “We were able to meet another demographic of people that we may not otherwise be able to connect with. It has been such a rewarding experience, and we look forward to another successful show in 2023.”
Juniata Trading Co. partners are lending their expertise during programs, demonstrations and Ask the Expert opportunities on topics from turkey calls to cross bows to fly-tying and more.
Presenting event partners, insurance agents Matt Randall and Michael Meehan of State Farm will be on hand to provide information and experience as you look to protect your home, car and property.
As the Chamber reminds the community of the importance of shopping and doing business locally, dozens of companies will once again have experts at the ready to help you plan your next home improvement project or outdoor living space.
