Grand Rapids Gluten Free Food Fair May 16, 2015
May 16, 2015 at 10:00am-4:00pm is the Grand Rapid’s Gluten Free Food Fair. Usually you have to pay to get in, but the Grand Rapids one is free.
My favorite thing about going to a food fair is the samples. I hate it when I spend money on a food and hate it. Food fairs helps save you money. Just be prepared sometimes they run out of samples. Last year they had over 1,000 people come.
