At this time formal meetings will not take place due to the Coronavirus. The information remains on this website in hopes that at some time the meetings will return when it is safe for good health.
During this time, we encourage those on the email list to send Gluten Free recipes or Gluten Free product names that are helpful to them and those in their families that require Gluten Free meals. Send the recipes to Elaine Rubel at [email protected] 715-347-2417. They will be put on the website.
Our local group provides opportunities to interact with others who live gluten free through social activities and informational meetings and information shared in emails and on this website. The group is coordinated by Elaine Rubel. She can be contacted at 715-347-2417 or emailed at [email protected] if you have any questions relating to gluten free living.
We meet and share emails to discuss the gluten free lifestyle and health related topics. Our conversations are open to anyone so feel free to bring a guest or be added to the email list and share information. New people are always welcome. Feel free also to bring something for yourself to drink. We discuss gluten free topics such as research, new products, local restaurants, recipes and the benefits and challenges of living gluten free. At each meeting we take time especially to discuss interests and concerns of those attending related to the gluten free life. We are also happy to hear from you about topics and GF information you feel would be helpful as we plan upcoming meetings and emails.
We have an active website and I am available at meetings and by email and phone.
We welcome those on the email list for Gluten Free Stevens Point to share their helpful ideas on living gluten free by contacting me to pass ideas through the emails sent out to the email list. Also those who have questions or concerns related to gluten free living are welcomed to email or call me.

Dear Gluten Free Friends,
If anyone would like a tour of my garden, I am happy to arrange that for you. I am always dealing with weeding and other common garden activities. My yard is not perfect.
Just give me a phone call or email to arrange a tour. If you call, leave a message in order to avoid scam calls.
Elaine Rubel [email protected] 715-347-2417
Garden features gluten free, keto, low oxalate, and low histamine type diets and includes fermenting foods including sauerkraut, kefir, yogurt, and old time fermented pickles. Yard also includes a blueberry patch, grape vines, and currents.
Because I am sensitive to fragrances, I request the tour at my yard to include some of the following depending on interest of the individuals and for sure to keep me safe from toxins in fragrances (see link below):
https://www.lung.org/clean-air
*Many Tours during the summer months
*People coming one at a time or coming with family or coming with a small circle of friends, that is, not many at a time, due to my problems with fragrances, arrange by individual's phone calls. Due to scam calls, always leave a message. Times and dates of tours - flexible and what works for individuals and me.
*Avoid wearing fragrances
*Not wearing any essential oils
*The tour would encourage lots of conversation back and forth with questions, comments, suggestions, and especially from and what individuals that come are doing on their property, that is conversation on what different people are doing or would like to do - open ended.
*Prairie planting in front and back yard and in "flower beds", The flower beds deal with weed management and using prairie flowering plants and prairie grasses along with other shrubs and desired plants, and some use ideas from some State parks
*Also a 40 X 40 garden with 3 compost piles and some interesting tools and items for planting and starting plants with ease and drip irrigation from air cooling geothermal system
* Started Prairie in the 70's / How to do prairie plantings with ease and success / How to manage weeds / some years a prairie burn
*can bring a small pot to take a plant home with you, only a plant with which I choose to part and have an abundance. It can be from prairie plants, herbs, or other plantings that I have in great abundance.
Sincerely,
Elaine Rubel
