On Sunday, 75 vendors came together in Bristol for the 14th biannual Passport to Health & Wellness Expo. Organizer Shirley Bloethe highlighted the importance of this event for small businesses, many of which operate from home. “They have to actually go to an expo in order for customers to see them and know who they are,” she explained, underscoring the expo's role in connecting local entrepreneurs with the community.
The expo showcased a variety of holistic health practices, promoting wellness through alternative therapies and natural products. Attendees had the opportunity to explore booths featuring everything from herbal remedies to wellness coaching.
