A few weeks later, Mandy found an ad on Facebook for a “short” school bus and thus the adventure began, with the “small” but mighty “Cool Bus”...
We proudly made it to the semi finals of Edible the magazines Green Chile Cheeseburger Smackdown! While we didn’t take home the prize; we got enough feedback and heard the new members of, The Munchie Truck Army loud and clear (we gave out over 100 members stickers). We have decided to bring back the, Heart of the Valley, for a while longer. So why not come out and judge it for yourself? All local, always.
