We're Building Our Own Food Truck



Pancakes with hot buttered maple syrup and fresh fruit al fresco under the old maples in our town circle. This is a bit of heaven for us and for our customers. What our customers don't know is that it takes 7-8 man hours to set up our outdoor kitchen each week at our farmers' market. That was always a problem, but not any more.

This year we looked into buying a food truck but they cost tens of thousands of dollars and none were even what we wanted. SO, we let our genius neighbor/contractor/friend loose on our landscape equipment trailer.

We designed and he built a cooking/serving space with everything we need and not one inch devoted to what we do not need. All the prep and serving counters fold out leaving 10'x6' of space for us to prep, cook and serve pancakes, salads, grilled chicken and vegetables, and sell our frozen take home dinners.

It's still under construction but here are the first pics of our new baby. We thought you'd be amused.
