Contributed by the Deseret News Home Improvement Show
The Deseret News Fall Home Show — which takes place Oct. 9-11 at the South Towne Expo Center — has become a community tradition for over 31 years and continues to bring consumers the latest inspiration for home.
With over 350 companies, the show has something for everyone. Consumers will have the opportunity to peruse aisles of home improvement products, meet experts, attend cooking classes and give back to the community, not to mention the opportunity to find the best deals on products and services they need.
