We started our concession business in the Midwest about 10 years ago with a 5lb bag of flour and an electric griddle. We have traveled many miles, from feeding the mile long line in Tecumseh, MI, reuniting with New Englanders in Greene, NY and finding out what sweet tea really is in King, NC. We were awed with the releasing of rehabilitated birds at Skye Spirits, Harrisville PA and all the woman drums while selling lemonade at the Feast of the East in WV . We battled the elements, from surviving a tornado in Logan OH, to 110 degrees in North Carolina while feeding 150 people on 1hr notice. The late night sessions of trade blanket have been sorely missed. These have all been experiences we took with us when we were able to come home to New England.
We were not surprised that everyone was so helpful and welcoming since coming back to New England. The kindness and generosity shown to us and our family has proven that yes, you can come home.
We still travel many miles, and we look forward to seeing everyone along the way.

Great changes are in store for us this year. We are expanding our menu and our travels.
Check out our menu page for a look at our increased options. We will be holding true to our traditions while keeping current. While not every item will be available at every event, we're sure you'll find our new items tasty and delicious while being reasonably priced.
Being back in New England has been great, seeing family and old friends while making new friends! Our past travels have brought us around much of the country, but we would like to see as much as we can. See family, old friends and make many more new friends! Not quite sure where our travels will take us, but we're excited about the journey!
New for 2012
