When Bridget, Food Service Director approached us in conjunction with Cheryl at the Cornell Co-op, we had just completed a build for another local school district who was using their truck as a mobile concession stand. After discussing the project with representatives from Buffalo Schools and Cornell, it became apparent that the need for building this truck was far different than the unit we had just built for the other district. See, Buffalo Schools saw a need to incorporate fresh fruits and vegetables into the meal plans for their students as many lived in food deserts in the Buffalo area. So, along came the Buffalo Schools Farm to Table Food Truck. With the help of some grant money at State and Federal levels, we were able to design and build the first food truck Buffalo Public Schools had ever owned. The focus and mission of the truck remained offering healthy options for those it served and improving the overall health of the students in the district. To this day, the truck serves several different Buffalo schools and participates in many public events throughout the City of Buffalo. What made this unit unique was the layout! This truck had (2) separate 48″ service windows, which was done by design. In 2020, Covid was a real thing, so social distancing had to be designed into the truck itself. By separating the windows, it provided the ability to separate customers, so they were not congregating around one service window like most food trucks have. This allowed customers to order at one window and pick up at the other or has two separate lines where distancing could be achieved. Other features included a flat top, char grill, 2 burner, steam table, stand up refrigerators and a large, refrigerated prep table. This allowed for many meals and menus to be served at any time. While this truck has been in service for 3 years now, we sure hope this is not the last truck we build for the district. Their mission was so important and continues to be important to this day!
