GREENVILLE—Darke County will showcase the sixth annual Darke County Food Truck Rally & Craft Show on Saturday, May 6, 2023, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Great Darke County Fairgrounds.

The food truck rally will be a celebration of local, small businesses.

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy in the United States, Ohio and Darke County. Come out and help support them during this first large food truck event of the season. These local small businesses need your support NOW more than ever! The event will take place rain or shine on Saturday, May 6, at the Darke County fairgrounds.

The food trucks confirmed so far are:

Artic Fox, Badges BBQ, Bowman’s Concessions, Buckeye Burgers, Chuck’s Foods, Creme de la Creme Cakery, Fiske Fries & Cheese Curds, Godown’s Fixins, Homestead Spud, Kettle Colonel, Kona Ice, La Granja Mexican Food, Lil Tiki Weenies, Little Boijon Cuisine, Martin’s Old Fashioned Lemonade, Mikesell’s Concessions, Nacho Pig, The German Corner, Timeless Tacos, Werling Street Eats & Wholly Smokes BBQ.

We also have a large selection of over 100 craft vendors, specialty clothing boutique trucks, food trucks and shops. Spend the day shopping for that special and unique gift for Mother’s Day. The craft vendors will be open from 10am-7pm and located just inside the coliseum and outside under tents.

There is a full day of entertainment in the gazebo with great local bands from Darke County. The live entertainment includes the following: The Green de Villes from 11am-1pm, Spittin’ Image from 2-4pm, and finishing up the day will be another local talented group Shannon Clark & The Sugar from 5-7pm.

Jungle Island Zoo will be offering pony rides and a petting zoo for the kids from 12pm-6pm.

Stop by the registration table located across from the gazebo area to enter your name in a drawing for a chance to win over $1,000 in prizes donated from local restaurants and businesses. You will receive an entry ticket for the drawing when you park your car at the fairgrounds. Solid Rock Apostolic Church will be taking care of the parking for the event.

We appreciate all of our local business sponsors for helping promote this great event for our community. Winners will be announced at the top of each hour for the chance to collect a special prize and that can be picked up at the registration table located across from the gazebo.

“We are very excited about celebrating local, small businesses for this much-anticipated event of the season,” according to Jason Blackburn, the promoter of the event. “Celebrating and supporting local, small businesses here in Darke County will help grow our local economy and keep these entrepreneurs busy for years to come.
