SECAUCUS, N.J. – Nourished: The Gluten Free, Allergy & Specialty Diet Festival, formerly The Gluten Free & Allergen Friendly Expo, is returning to New Jersey again this fall! The Nourished Festival and its team are incredibly excited to come back to Secaucus and the Meadowlands Exposition Center. The Secaucus stop of the Festival will take place Saturday October 5th and Sunday October 6th 2019.
In 2019, all Nourished Festival locations will provide expanded offerings to better accommodate the most popular food lifestyles. In addition to the existing Gluten-Free and Nut-Free zones, Paleo, Keto, and Plant-Based products will bring variety and educational opportunities to everyone living a gluten-free lifestyle. As in the past, all products at the festival will be gluten free.
At the Nourished Festival, attendees will have one-on-one moments with over 120 brands exhibiting the best products for food sensitivities, food allergies and specialty diets. The festival also provides the opportunity to sample and purchase products, meet founders, receive coupons and attend free educational presentations hosted by industry-respected speakers.
While all products at the Festival are gluten free, many exhibitors will also showcase products free from the top eight allergens – and beyond. The Nourished Festivals are managed by The Nourished Group, with a team fluent in gluten-free living, celiac disease, and food allergies – and the rising need to find safe and delicious food and lifestyle products for any specialty diet. Presented by allergen-friendly sponsor Enjoy Life Foods, this event is family friendly and ideal for anyone following a specialty diet lifestyle.
“Our festivals nourish the needs of the entire food community – whether its those with celiac disease, autism, autoimmune or inflammatory conditions or those committed to living a healthy lifestyle,” says Nourished Festival founder, Jen Cafferty. “With comfort foods like pizza and baked goods to healthy lifestyle options like protein bars and probiotic drinks, this festival truly offers something for everyone. An event of this scale being accessible to the general public is a rare and exciting way to explore new options and sample products before buying them in store.”
A sample of this year’s exhibitors includes:
- Local bakeries like Everybody Eats Bakery, Izzi B’s Allergen-Free Bakery, and Isaura Bakery will showcase their gluten-free baked goods
- Gluten-free breweries like Ghostfish Brewing Company and Glutenberg Craft Brewery will showcase their award-winning celiac-safe beers
- Grain-free brands like Soozy’s Grain-Free, The Real Coconut, and Otto’s Naturals will showcase their paleo-friendly products
- And for the first time, Casa de Sante will showcase their line of gluten-free and low-FODMAP friendly foods
