After producing more than 22 food truck festivals in New England over the past few years, “It was time,” says FTFA Executive Producer Anne-Marie Aigner, “to chase the sun during the snowy months in New England. We’re delighted to be producing a series of warm-weather festivals, including the one in Albuquerque – and we’re sure the trucks and the guests will love the festival enough that it will become an annual tradition.”
