22 Plant-Based & Gluten Friendly Foods at EPCOT’s Flower & Garden Festival
The 2023 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival started at the beginning of March and runs alllllll the way until July 5th, 2023. So, you have a lot of time to get to the festival!
One of the main things about EPCOT’s Flower & Garden Festival is the FOOD! We checked out every single food booth at the start of the festival, and there are definitely a lot of options worth your time.
But, we know that not everyone can eat everything at the festival — some people have certain dietary restrictions, and Disney takes that into account. In fact, they just compiled a list highlighting 22 gluten/wheat friendly and/or plant-based items at the festival.
