How the day works
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. A Christmas party in Elsted Marsh with a hired food truck will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we will park. In late June, it stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.

Comparing your options
