Food trucks gather in Humboldt to support ‘Shop with a Cop’ program

HUMBOLDT, Tenn. — One local police department hosts a fundraising event for all to enjoy.

The Humboldt Police Department hosted their Food Truck Day event. Local favorites like Country Cabin Sweets & Treats, Tacolima, Journeyman’s Food Truck, Grandma’s BBQ, and more were on hand Friday, and will continue serving up some great food on Saturday.

A portion of the proceeds will be going to the Humboldt Police Department’s efforts to continue their ‘Shop with a Cop’ event held in December.

“Citizens thought that it would be a great idea for some of our vendors to come and donate, and they are doing a tip jar and [contributing] a portion of the sales. And so a couple of them agreed and came out, and this is the first time it’s ever happened with the food trucks donating. So this was a genuine idea by the community to come out and donate for ‘Shop with a Cop,” said Chief Kenny Rich, Humboldt Police Department.

The food trucks will be at the parking lots located at Mitchell Street and 22nd Avenue in Humboldt.
