"We will always be looking for new trucks to showcase," says Sher- rod. "We plan to have at least one truck at all times, but I ask people to be patient with us as we get started. Food Trucks plan their schedules months in advance, so it will take us some time to build up a full sched- ule. e best way to keep up with what's happening at HTS is to fol- low us on Facebook and Instagram."
