My 17 month old son and I have been gluten free for about 1 month now and I'm looking for a little support in the community. Is anyone from the Hampton Roads area? I live in Virginia Beach and would like to meetup with others who follow the gluten free lifestyle.

I'm in Raleigh, but grew up in Suffolk.

There's a great store in VAB called Navan Foods (you probably already know about it) on Holland Rd.
They have a lot of information about the Tidewater Celiac Support Group, plus a lot of great food choices.

I also would recommend Navan Foods - the owners are very knowledgable.

A great support group is:

necro post i know but im from yorktown now in richmond for school.

i actually found out that i had celiac disease from a natural medicine guy out in va beach named paul thompson. i dont buy much stuff locally back home but my mom said that the foodlion back home started to have more gluten-free stuff and i know the kroger up there by me has a good selection and when i want to take a small trip (15 min drive) i go to whole foods and drop a lot of cash on stuff out there (but they in gluten-free bakery stuff honestly sucks for the most part, only good thing ive had from them is the pecan pie).

i cannot remember the place we went to down there after we found out i had celiac disease but i think it might have been the place yall are talking about.
