Last Friday, Minnesota’s Governor Tim Walz signed an executive order allowing food trucks to serve at a handful of rest stops throughout the state. With a lot of restaurants closed and truckers having a hard time finding a hot meal while out on the road, the Governor is hoping this order will give truckers a new option when deciding what to eat. Food truck operators will have to apply for a temporary permit and will be allowed to serve food at rest stops as long as the ‘stay at home’ order is in place. Here is a list of the rest stops where food trucks will be allowed:
- St. Croix (I-94 westbound)
- Enfield (I-94 eastbound)
- Forest Lake (I-35 southbound)
- New Market (I-35 southbound)
- Marion (I-90 westbound)
- Fuller Lake (I-94 westbound)
