Turning the “can’ts” of budding

at the heart of what Lowery and
Crumley do.
Lowery, who apprenticed in
San Francisco, has 40-plus years
of culinary wit. Also a wine
aficionado, he blends all the hats
of his restaurateur years and his
familial roots to create a unique
repertoire of the best of the
best cuisine. Crumley, a trained
sushi chef, is one of Knoxville’s
homegrown chefs, a graduate
of The Culinary Institute at the
University of Tennessee.
The cooking duo believes
“cooking doesn’t have to be
complicated or fussy.” Lowery says,
“The heart of cooking is about
family and friends coming together
to share the love of food.”

- 14. 14 House & GardensHow Knoxville News Sentinel, Friday, February 7, 2014 ORNL Federal Credit Union to offer place to relax and chat By Betsy PIckle Custom Publishing correspondent T here’s so much to see and do at the Dogwood Arts House & Garden Show that it can be overwhelming. Don’t worry – just relax at the ORNL Federal Credit Union booth. “We’ll have a TV set up, couches – just kind of a relaxing area for people to come in and talk to us,” says Jessica Emert, director of community and public relations for ORNL Federal Credit Union. Walking around the convention center can be a jumpstart to dreaming about home and landscape projects. The credit union’s booth is a smart place to begin thinking about how to turn those dreams into reality. “We’re going to be there with some of our mortgage loan officers and branch staff to answer questions that people may have about financing or how they can go about getting home-equity loans, or if they wanted to redo their back yard or do some landscaping. We want to help them do that,” says Emert. ORNL Federal Credit Union also will give away a copy of Sycamore Row, the 2014 Dogwood Arts Limited Editon Print by Kathie Odom. As a presenting sponsor of Dogwood Arts since 2004, the credit union, which has 32 branches across 16 East Tennessee counties, enjoys taking part in the popular House & Garden Show. “We speak to hundreds and hundreds of people every year,” Emert says. “It’s been a good opportunity for our employees to connect with vendors and to connect with the community, even some of their own members who come by and have questions or recognize them. “It gives us a chance to be out there and to be present and to let people know that yes, we’re in the finance business, but we’re also supporting the community. The Dogwood Arts Festival has a rich history, and we’re proud to be a part of it.” Emert says credit union employees jump at the chance to staff the booth. “It’s just a little bit different from working inside the office,” she says. “It gives them the chance to interact with others that they may not usually see, whether that’s members or even other employees. It gets them involved and connected.” And, of course, during breaks they can look around and get their own ideas. “The House & Garden Show is the perfect place to learn new tricks and home pointers,” says Emert. She’s always happy to work at the booth and hear what people have to say about the credit union, which was founded in 1948. “It’s great to hear stories of how we have helped members in the past with their home needs.” Visit Greater Knoxville's #1 glass company at 9939 Kingston Pike 14 FULL SIZE SHOWERS ON DISPLAY!

Those indulgent, classic Italian favorites – spaghetti carbonara, porcini tagliatelle and farro pilaf – will take center stage for three days during the House & Garden Show’s Cooking School sponsored by online gourmet food store Avanti Savoia. “Imagine classic Italian dishes upgraded with modern twists that are authentic, quick and fun to prepare,” says Chef Joseph Lowery. “It sounds too good to be true, but not when you visit us during the Cooking School.” Lowery and Chef Karen Crumley, both Avanti Savoia chef consultants and cooking instructors, will demonstrate and offer step-by-step instructions on “how to properly chop your ingredients, cook your sauce and boil your pasta,” explains Lowery. “Once the correct techniques are learned, any recipe can be followed and enjoyed. “Then we’ll add a modern twist to the classic.” Fried sage leaves will amp up spaghetti carbonara. The richness of an Alfredo sauce and a wild mushroom medley will infuse the porcini tagliatelle dish. Roasted butternut squash combined WET BASEMENT OR CRAWL SPACE? WE FIX IT.

- 19. 20 House & GardensHow Knoxville News Sentinel, Friday, February 7, 2014 Champion: More than windows and sunrooms By Betsy PIckle Custom Publishing correspondent A t the House & Garden Show, Champion Windows, Sunrooms, Roofs and Home Exteriors will focus on the house part of the equation, but the company will bring a taste for the outdoors along. “We’ll have a life-size sunroom,” says Carolyn Leditke, creative director at the Champion home office in Cincinnati. “People will be able to walk in and open and close the doors and actually see the quality of construction.” The 60-year-old company does more than windows and sunrooms; it also does entry doors, garage doors, vinyl siding and roofs. “We can protect and upgrade your entire home exterior,” says Leditke. Show visitors can get a crash course in Champion’s history and products, with plenty of hands-on education. “They’ll be able to touch and test and see our windows,” Leditke says. “Our siding, our windows, our sunrooms, our entry doors – all that will be on display. Unlike trying to pick it out of a catalog, they’ll actually be able to see it and test the quality.” There will even be a section of roof to examine. Special savings will be offered, along with contests. And visitors can schedule an in-home consultation to see what Champion can do for them. “Because everything is customdesigned and custom-manufactured, each project is treated as unique,” says Ben Rosenfield, Champion’s public relations manager. “There’s not a one-size-fits-all product that we make.” And everything comes with a lifetime guarantee. “We actually guarantee not only the product, but we guarantee the installation of that product as long as they own their home,” says Leditke. “If there’s ever a problem, they call Champion. Anything they need from the time they purchase a product from us, they’ll just come to Champion, and that gives homeowners huge peace of mind.” One of Champion’s biggest innovations is its Comfort 365 glass. “That’s an argon-enhanced glass product,” explains Rosenfield. “It’s designed to keep the cold out and the heat in or the heat out and the cold in, depending on what season you’re in, and also block a significant amount of UV exposure from sunlight that will fade your carpet, your curtains, your furniture and things like that.” “We have a really cool demonstration at the show that illustrates the difference between the typical windows in the industry and how our glass even outperforms triple frame,” says Leditke, who notes that Champion’s windows and doors are Energy Star certified in all 50 states. “The difference in feeling is immediate,” says Rosenfield. “There’s absolutely no way you could mistake our glass for anybody else’s.” WOLF TREE A Division of THE DAVEY TREE EXPERT CO.

- 21. 22 House & GardensHow Knoxville News Sentinel, Friday, February 7, 2014 Grand Gardens enliven show with color and scents By Ronda Robinson Custom Publishing correspondent C A glowing firepit accents a garden during last year’s show. olorful flowers, ferns, shrubs, trees and even miniature trains turn thousands of square feet of concrete floor into warm and inviting garden vignettes during the annual Dogwood Arts House & Garden Show at the Knoxville Convention Center. This year visitors will be able to stroll through 10 gardens, ranging from 600 to 1,000 square feet apiece, and taste spring around the corner. “Each is uniquely designed by area landscapers to showcase the newest designs for gardens and landscaping,” says Elizabeth Thomas, garden manager for the show. She notes that the Grand Gardens are strategically placed throughout the exhibit space, offering constant splashes of color, inspiration and hints of spring. “In essence, the gardens are our floor show! Without the gardens, the show would be devoid of greenery and new life, and we truly could not attract the thousands who come specifically to escape the harsh cold.” The gardens may include covered decks, paver patios, walkways, ponds and other creative ideas for outdoor spaces, all landscaped with trees, shrubs, blooming flowers, mulch and hardscapes. As Thomas explains, “Each gardener builds all of this inside the Knoxville Convention Center exhibit hall to bring spring to life for visitors to enjoy during the show.” The gardeners bring a rainbow of creative talents to their endeavors, from ball courts and putting greens to retaining walls and rain gardens. All aim to help their clients increase curb appeal as well as enjoyment of outdoor living spaces. Thomas says the Grand Gardens give visitors a chance to discuss their homes and outdoor spaces with many of the region’s most talented landscape designers. This year, the Grand Gardens were designed by Mark W. Fuhrman Complete Landscape Services, Brookhaven Designs LLC, Earthadelic, Landscape Outfitters, Petey’s Landscaping, Plan-It Green Landscapes, Pleasant Hill Nursery, Reno Landscaping Services, Stuart Row Landscapes and Willow Ridge Garden Center & Landscaping. the color of home. the color of life. the color of certainty in Knoxville.

- 23. 24 House & GardensHow Knoxville News Sentinel, Friday, February 7, 2014 Fuhrman railroad to have mountain feel By Ronda Robinson Custom Publishing correspondent T rains take Mark Fuhrman and his fans to a magical place, a simpler time in America. He will bring that vision to life again when he makes his 21st appearance at the House & Garden Show, as his garden will be a railroad landscape tribute to East Tennessee of the 1930s to 1950s. Miniature barns, shacks and log cabins will dot the landscape in the exhibit, evoking the feeling of Cades Cove and the Smoky Mountains. The garden railroad will display trains 129th the size of real ones and tracks 1 3/4 inches wide. Fuhrman and crew will landscape the 1,000-square-foot exhibit with an assortment of miniature plants and a small waterfall. “Every year we always try to have something different,” he says. “We run both steam and early diesel locomotives. That was the era that steam was ending and early diesel locomotives were starting.” Furhman, who at 60 owns hundreds of model trains, will share his railroad passion with a display that takes 10 men nearly two days to build. His specialty actually is large residential landscaping. He is celebrating his 36th year in the business. His Knoxville-based company, Mark W. Fuhrman Complete Landscape Services, installs everything from waterfalls to retaining walls. However, he’s also built several garden railroads for people he’s met at past shows. Fuhrman’s scope extends into the region, as he’s put together holiday garden railroad displays at Dollywood, the Christmas Place in Pigeon Forge and Children’s Museum of Oak Ridge. As he says, “Doing these public displays is a good way of justifying the hobby.” For more information about Mark W. Fuhrman Complete Landscape Services, call 584-7666.

- 24. Knoxville News Sentinel,Friday, February 7, 2014 House & Garden sHow 25 Landscape Outfitters to create Smokies scene By Rebecca Ferrar Custom Publishing correspondent A field that could be part of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is the inspiration behind the design by Jeremy Fuson, owner of Halls-based Landscape Outfitters. “It’s going to go back to the Smoky Mountain look, the outdoor rugged style,” Fuson says. “What we’re planning is really like being in the mountains. We’ll have a rock bridge where you walk up the bridge across the stream. It’s like a rustic outdoor patio space.” It will fit East Tennessee well, he says. “It will be like the Smoky Mountains and an outdoor mountain field. It’s what a lot of people want in their back yard.” In addition to the mountain stream and bridge, Fuson plans to build other water features. “We’re going to do lots of evergreen trees and shrubs,” he adds. “We’ll use lots of pink heather. Everybody loves pink heathers because of their color.” The evergreen blooms in the winter and is relatively inexpensive, he says. Landscape lighting will accent the focal points. “We’ll have lots of big boulders to give it the feel of the mountains,” Fuson says. “We’ll do multi-elevations of the walkways to give the feel that you’re really in the backyard.” The pathways will be “mostly a flagstone look. The walkway and patio will be a flagstone look with some accents for style,” he says. A bubbling stone fountain was incorporated into Landscape Outfitters’ grand garden. Fuson says his staff puts the Grand Garden together in about a week and takes it down in one day. FREE ESTIMATES FREE ESTIMATES 2014 NISSAN LEAF NOW IN STOCK! Come visit our booth!

House & GardensHow 28 Knoxville News Sentinel, Friday, February 7, 2014 Pleasant Hill’s water feature requires less maintenance By Rebecca Ferrar Custom Publishing correspondent A pondless water feature and a fire pit with a sitting area will be the main features of the backyard garden created by Pleasant Hill Nursery at the show. “We’re going to make a small backyard with a nice little relaxation area using a combination of natural, hardscape and manufactured walls,” says Rick Oakes, owner. “We’ll have a natural stone patio.” “When you walk into it, you go through a brick paver patio,” Oakes says. “If you go to the right, it’s a semicircle sitting area, and in the center is a fire pit. On the other side will be a relaxed sitting bench with an arbor with music in the background. Lush plantings and water feature were part of the Pleasant Hill Nursery garden in 2013. “We try to keep it natural and simple.” Oakes says the pondless water feature will have water underneath the stones and won’t have fish. “It’s mainly for the sound element,” he says. Such ponds are safer for families with children and require less maintenance. “Most people want the sound without the maintenance,” Oakes says. The Grand Garden will also showcase some of the trees from the nursery’s tree farm in Maryville, where they produce about 4,500 trees. The plants in the garden will include hollies, boxwoods, weeping Japanese maples, magnolias and evergreens. Improve Your Well Being With Chiropractic Care Your well being is our top priority.

But at this year’s House & Garden Show, the owner of Stuart Row Landscaping plans to blend such natural ingredients with modern features in creating an outdoor living space in his Grand Garden area. Located near the entrance to the show floor, Row’s presentation this year will juxtapose an area featuring evergreens, flowering ground covers and boulders with a hardscape sitting area that showcases squared pavers, contemporary furnishings, new lighting fixtures, a fire pit and a water feature. “We always try to have a few unique-looking items.

One QUALITY YOU INSIST ON, SERVICE YOU CAN DEPEND ON! will be incorporated into the rock water feature, where water will cascade into a collecting pool below. “It’s a different look than what we would normally do,” Row adds. Row, who has been in the landscaping business since 1982, received a degree in horticulture from the University of Tennessee in 1987 and has been operating his own business since 1995. One of the business’s unique aspects is that it grows 90 percent of the plant materials it works with on its own 10acre nursery site near Lenoir City. “We produce everything from ground cover and perennials to flowering shrubs and trees,” Row says. He also cites the fact that his two supervisors – both horticulture graduates – as well as the rest of his staff have all been with the company for many years.

Robert Smiddy, owner of Willow Ridge Landscaping in Oak Ridge, decided to make the best of things by creating a theme that played right into his hands. “This year, we’ll be showing guests how much they can do with a small space,” says Smiddy, who is participating in his 15th consecutive House & Garden Show. “We’ll demonstrate how people can narrow down their scope and their costs and still do something grand.” The Willow Ridge display will feature an elevated paver patio TOUCH OF Ann Millsaps of Maryville snaps some phone pictures at the Willow Ridge garden during last year’s show. area and adjoining sitting wall. The centerpiece of the presentation will be an 8- or 9-foot-tall boulder waterfall that drops to a small pond feature. “Many homes in East Tennessee only have 10 feet or so of useable backyard space before it backs into a steep hillside. So we’ll show how to do something incredible with that kind of area,” Smiddy adds. “We’ll also have a deck section near the water feature to show more possibilities.” Willow Ridge plans to show off its full capabilities as a design-build landscape firm and retail garden center by incorporating additional elements such as exterior lighting, a space designated for a fire pit and a diverse range of plant life, from evergreens to hardy tropicals like palms and banana trees. Willow Ridge Landscaping was named 2013 Retailer of the Year by the Tennessee Nursery & Landscape Association and has been included in the group’s top 100 retailers for the past three years.

House & GardensHow 34 VARIETY Knoxville News Sentinel, Friday, February 7, 2014 Limited Edition Print depicts beauty of Cades Cove continued from page 4 The how-to of healthy eating – fried chicken without frying it – will be un-floured by Chef Dan Galligan and his nutrition guru wife, Medea, of Healthy Cooking Concepts. Fried chicken without frying it, or vegetable medley without boiling, may seem like a cruel joke on your taste buds. But the Galligans assure that there is no punch line, and they’re serving up food samples to prove it. Their recipe for health begins in the cookware – Kitchen Craft’s waterless cookware. The American-made, engineered cookware combines seven layers of metal, which allows heat to spread evenly, explains Dan. A tried-and-true believer of the cookware, Dan saw his own health take a turn for the better after becoming a Kitchen Craft loyalist. “The craftsmanship combined with the natural moisture – no adding grease, oil or water – of foods produces food that not only tastes good, but is better for you,” he says And that’s only smidgen of what the House & Garden Show’s buffet offers. Prepare to be overwhelmed – in a good way.

Odom says she and her husband were spending a day visiting Cades Cove to paint the panoramic views of the Smoky Mountains when some fluffy white weeds caught her attention and she felt called to a line of sycamores in the open cove. “There is something strange and mysterious that awakens within me as I open my easel and paint in the outdoors, as in Sycamore Row,” says Odom, who was Custom Decks...
