Gluten-Free Food Fair this Saturday May 18th (& New Seasons sale all weekend!)

Lisa Shaver ND is putting on what looks like it will be the best Gluten-free Food Fair yet!

Come one, come all!

AND

New Seasons is having a 50% off sale on some of their “best selling” gluten-free items. I’m really really  hoping it will be more than just a few things! Bet they’ll have some tastings going on there as well.

Working Behind the Scenes on Gluten-Free Portland!

Dr_Samantha_web_028Hello hello, everyone!

I wanted to first thank Dave for passing on the torch at GFP. He’s neck deep in a bunch of other projects but I’ll confess that I’m hoping to rope him into con

tinuing to do some restaurant reviews. He’s still got to eat, right?  And he’ll be around as he’s agreed to co-admin our FB group (come on over!).

Second, I figured it’s time to show my face and let you know that we’re working behind the scenes with plans for some site updates, new reviews and an exciting new layout and plan. Now we’re not quite ready for a big reveal but some of the things that are coming down the pike include:

  • Kids Corner. Local gluten-free cuties doing video reviews of restaurants, locally produced products, and other things of interest to our GF community.
  • Faster loading.
  • Updated restaurant lists.
  • Monthly feature focusing on restaurants that understand and are able to accommodate cross-contamination concerns.
  • Local GF product section.

What do you think? Anything else you’d like to see here? Please shout, we’re open to new ideas (and guest contributors!)

In Health,
Dr. Samantha (you can get me at contact (at) GlutenFreePortland (dot) org

 

 

Finally that Update I promised you: Changes for Gluten-free Portland

Sorry for the delay on getting this up. We wanted to make sure all of our ducks were in a row.

We’ve got some exciting news to share about Gluten-free Portland
that we’ve been hinting at both in the blog and in our facebook group over the last few weeks.

As you may have noticed things have gotten a little slow around here. It’s been our intention to spend more time getting things updated but life, alas, has been pulling us in a number of other directions of late. But the site is important. We are committed to providing up-to-date, accessible, and accurate information about all things gluten-free in Portland. So as of today, we’re passing the torch to Dr. Samantha, a local Portland ND who has a big heart for the gluten-free community.

She’ll be posting soon to update you all about her plans for the site. We’ll still be around so if you want to reach me (or my beautiful wife, Sienna) feel free to send us a note through the site and we’ll be sure to get it.

Thanks for all of your support! I’m looking forward to seeing how things shake out on the new site with Dr. Samantha at the helm.

-Dave
