Farm to Food Truck Challenge
Our newest Purple Plow Challenge - Farm to Food Truck!
Have you ever eaten from a food truck? Ever wonder where that truck GETS its food?
Join this year's Purple Plow Summer Challenge!
Challenge your students to come up with a food truck concept and menu and then track back where each ingredient comes from!
Challenge Specifics
Your prototype must address the following needs:
- Track where the food for your menu comes from.
- Provide a cost analysis for food items.
- Understand labeling and marketing of food items.
- Emphasize sourcing local ingredients when possible.
Success will be determined by:
- Construction of a food truck menu of three to five items based on a selected food truck theme.
- Creation of a budget for all items needed for the menu.
- Providing an analysis of the farm to food truck journey for all ingredients in one menu item.
- Producing a marketing campaign that advertises the foods sourced in your food truck business.
