The organizers, the Gluten & Expo Allergen Free Expo, recommend for you to purchase your tickets in advance on line at gfexpo.com because they are selling fast.

This Saturday I will take my family to the show. I have purchased 4 tickets. As you know, my son Cesar Michael has Celiac disease. A strict gluten-free diet is the only treatment to his autoimmune disease. My my daughter Cecilia Marie has wheat allergy therefore a gluten-free diet is essential for maintaining a healthy life. We were so happy to find out that this event was taking place around our area. Our children can’t wait to attend the show.

By purchasing your tickets and attending the show, you will be sampling and purchasing gluten free and allergen free products from over 100 specialty vendors, will be a member in the GFAF EXPO CLUB which means that you will receive online offers and news monthly, will be able to attend lectures about gluten and allergen free topics, will receive a free bag to carry your items, take home samples of your favorite products and will be able shop for gluten free and allergen free items at the new Expo Store.
