Cactus Blue has been a part of the Food Truck Food Drive for several years now.<\/p>\n
“There are so many times throughout our life when we need support and so we are thrilled to be a part of a day that gives support to really all of our neighbors who might need it right now,” says Co-Owner Elizabeth Ortiz.<\/p>\n
After dropping off donations swing by multiple food trucks featuring food of all kinds.<\/p>\n
“Absolutely fish tacos will be on the truck this weekend and our wonderful walking tacos,” says Ortiz.<\/p>\n
Harry Parashos will be serving up Greek food of all kinds at his truck Greek Street.<\/p>\n
“My most favorite one is to have a vegan gyro with the marinated chickpea and the balsamic glaze. I think it’s the most healthy item that I have on my menu,” he says.<\/p>\n
This will be his first Food Truck Food Drive in a community he’s been a part of for 40 plus years.<\/p>\n
“It’s very important to me that the community has given so much to me over the 45 years that I’ve been here in the Lehigh Valley and gave me a lot and I always like to give something back to the community,” Parashos says.<\/p>\n
The event will run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. this Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ALLENTOWN, Pa. – Join 69 News at Dorney Park for the 10th annual Food Truck Food Drive as…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":172744,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[119,121,120,5705,524,15868,8790,2343,44219,7302,77500,13397,5716],"class_list":{"0":"post-172743","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-allentown","8":"tag-allentown","9":"tag-allentown-headlines","10":"tag-allentown-news","11":"tag-charity","12":"tag-community","13":"tag-donation","14":"tag-dorney-park","15":"tag-food-drive","16":"tag-food-truck","17":"tag-hunger","18":"tag-local-event","19":"tag-non-perishable-food","20":"tag-second-harvest-food-bank"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/172743","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=172743"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/172743\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/172744"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=172743"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=172743"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=172743"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
