Second Philadelphia Mobile Food Association meeting tomorrow

We first talked to the folks at Philadelphia Mobile Food Association (PMFA) back in December when they were organizing their first-ever meeting — and still calling themselves the Philadelphia Food Truck Association. Founding member Andrew Gerson of Strada Pasta says they decided on a name change to make things more inclusive — vendors of all kinds are welcome to share their thoughts and voices with the organization.

They'll get a chance tomorrow, January 11, from 6:30 to 8:45 p.m., when the PMFA holds its second meeting at the Free Library (1901 Vine St., fourth floor). They'll get into the nuts and bolts of the association, including the formation of committees and the election of a board of directors. Discussion will also focus on the three communal vendor lots the PMFA hopes to get up and running soon, which would allow multiple vendors to operate at private gathering places. Gerson emphasizes that Philly eaters, and not just business owners, are encouraged to attend the meeting. “These food trucks are for Philadelphians," he says. "[Customers] should let us know where they want the food trucks and why."
