First off, we want to tell our Missoula and Bitterroot community that we are so grateful for your support the past few years. A lot of you know that four years ago, we began with the dream of opening a food truck park in our Florence neighborhood. With our family’s help, we purchased a piece of land and began the process of design and permitting. Little did we know that the entire permitting process would take more than two years, and in that time, our area experienced unprecedented growth which resulted in crazy pricing increases as well as exorbitant new interest rates. We responded by scaling down our design and trying for simpler and simpler designs, trying every avenue we could find to make the project work. In the meantime, we opened our food truck to share the local bounties from our area’s food growers and producers and to promote our upcoming park. We have now, four years later, come to the end of the road for this dream project. We just couldn’t make it work at the cost the whole project has amassed. We are of course sad and frustrated, but we hope that those of you who have enjoyed our food will continue to support local food and keep seeking out local producers for your family’s food choices. If you ever need good sources for local meat, dairy, eggs, and veggies, and don’t know where to turn, we are always happy to help you find someone in your neighborhood. We will be running our food truck for a few final events in May, and we hope to be able to serve you at one of those!

Tentative schedule for May:
May 3 – Fundraiser for MT Vets Program at Corvallis Crossfit
May 9 – FT Festival at Ogren Park, a fundraiser for Cancer Support Community Montana
May 11 – Love Your Mother at Daly Mansion
May 31 – MTCX Homesteader 6-hour race at Marshall Mountain

Today is the day! Please join us from 4-7pm at Skalkaho Bend Park in Hamilton for a beautiful day along the Bitterroot River. There will be wine, beer from Higherground Brewing Company, food from Mimis Portico and Roots & Bitters, and a kids scavenger hunt.

This is our way to celebrate YOU, our community of supporters, for all that you make possible through your support of private land conservation in our valley. Bitterroot farms and ranches, wildlife habitat, water resources, and open areas to get out and recreate in nature will continue to thrive for future generations, because of landowners with a vision for land protection and a community who supports them.

Let’s get the party started! Big thanks to the City of Hamilton, MT and Bitterroot Bird Alliance for your help getting the park ready for this event. See you at Skalkaho Bend! 🍺 🍷 🍔 🍕 🌲 🎣 🏔️ ☀️

*Parking is available at the large parking lot between Kiwanis Park and Bitterroot College. The Darby School District shuttle will run to and from the park from 4-7pm!*
