How our Mexican street food works in Potter's Forstal
We follow your site rules, from arrival times to waste. Popular choices include loaded nachos, burrito bowls and burritos, and it’s a good fit for county and country shows and school fairs and fundraisers.
For a village fête or field event near Potter's Forstal, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Ground conditions and access matter, so tell us about them. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Send traders one clear trader pack
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
