Raising a Glass to Gluten-Free: Join Us for Beyond the Grain
Saro Cider is teaming up with Heirloom Fine Foods for a fresh new series designed especially for Omaha’s gluten-free community. Meet Beyond the Grain: Gluten-Free Gatherings — a pair of laid-back, delicious events that prove going gluten-free doesn’t mean giving up flavor or fun.
First up: a casual cocktail party on Friday, August 1 at the Saro Event Lounge on 10th Street. Sip cider (naturally gluten-free, of course) and mingle with friends who get it. Then, mark your calendar for Saturday, September 13, when Heirloom will host a cozy, sit-down feast at their beautiful event space on 72nd Street.
Both evenings promise not only safe and thoughtful menus but a chance to celebrate how tasty and nourishing gluten-free dining can be.
A little backstory for the curious: Saro Cider, based in Lincoln and founded in 2016 by Matt Wood, was born from personal experience — Matt discovered the joy of cider-making after his own Celiac diagnosis. Heirloom Fine Foods, meanwhile, has earned a loyal following for catering and cooking that respects all kinds of dietary needs. (You can find their market and café at Millwork Commons — worth a visit!)
Together, they’re hoping Beyond the Grain becomes an ongoing tradition, bringing people together over good food, good cider, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing you’re safe to indulge.
Cheers to that — and we hope to see you there! Tickets on the Heirloom Fine Foods website ( heirloomff.com )
