Jo-Joes Food Truck. HUGE kuddos to this food truck team!👏🏻 when our two other food trucks were unable to show up this team fed the whole fair with a smile on their face, even though it wasn’t easy!  When they ran low on something they changed their menu item… When they ran low again, they ran to the store… You get the picture! They worked super hard to keep us all fed and they did an amazing job. Thank you, Jo-Joe’s!! And your exhibitor lunches were delicious 😋 thank you for taking special care of our exhibitors as well .
