In an effort to better accommodate the approximately 15 million people in the United States who have food allergies, sensitivities and follow special diets, The Nourished Festival will be adding a vast array of exhibitors to meet the current needs of the most popular food lifestyles.

"For 12 years, attendees have enjoyed our gluten-free and allergen-friendly events," says Jen Cafferty, Founder and CEO of The Nourished Group, formerly The Gluten Free Media Group. "As the gluten-free movement advances, we are seeing more people adopt other special diets including Paleo, Keto and Plant-Based lifestyles. Our festivals will continue to meet the needs of our gluten-free and allergen-friendly community, and our new zones will allow us to expand to meet the needs of those following Paleo, Keto and Plant-Based lifestyles. The goal is to continue to support our attendees and grow with them as their diets change over time."
