Wellness Vendor Fair

Discover a wide range of health-focused products, services, and resources from local wellness businesses, organizations, and in-center retailers.

Guests can explore vendors offering information, samples, special offers, and helpful insights related to fitness, nutrition, beauty, skincare, healthy living, holistic wellness, and more.



Special Guest Speaker
How Food Speaks to Your Body

Presented by Edith Jones-Poland, MD

What does that apple tell your cells? How about that cookie?

In this inspiring and informational presentation, Dr. Jones-Poland will discuss how food directly affects your body down to the cellular level, with take-home tips to help you live your best life.

Dr. Jones-Poland is an integrative primary care physician and health coach. As the founder of Circe Healthcare Solutions and Coaching, she focuses on disease prevention, not just treatment, through the most natural and least invasive means possible.

The presentation will be approximately 30 minutes, followed by a Q&A.
