Created to fuel your mind, body and soul, Expo 2018, the largest health and wellness expo in Connecticut, will feature health education by Stamford Health, fun activities for children, plus the latest information, products and services from over 100 exhibitors. Special new attractions this year include the Healthy Home Zone, which will feature a variety of exhibitors with products and services to transform homes into green, energy efficient and safe residences for families, and the new, centrally located Demonstration Zone, which will feature speakers and presentations on health topics, such as a talk on Obstacles to Healthy Living with Isagenix and a discussion on organic wines and eco-friendly vineyards with Val’s Putnam Wines & Liquors. 

Attendees can also take part in “Dance It Out” with Billy Blanks Jr, as seen on ABC-TV’s Shark Tank, learn scuba with Capt. Saam’s Scuba School and taste savory foods from a wide variety of healthy food and beverage exhibitors at the Healthy Restaurant Sampling Zone.  The public can purchase raffle tickets for $5 and bring nonperishable food to support The Food Bank of Lower Fairfield County.
