Fresh Farm Bowls food truck, which launched operations in spring 2015, will shutter its business at the end of March.
According to owner Jonute Svien, a number of factors influenced his decision to close down the food truck business, including a family illness and residual financial strain originating with a food truck fabrication scam last fall.
For fans who want to get a last bite of the the truck’s internationally inspired fare, Fresh Farm Bowls will be serving at the Wisconsin Antique & Vintage Show, March 12-13 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Milwaukee County Sports Complex, 6000 W. Ryan Rd. in Franklin.
The food truck will feature its chipotle pulled pork bowl, falafel bowl, Asian chicken bowl and loaded mac and cheese bowl. Customers will receive a free water with every bowl purchased.
