How would you like to take ‘support local’ to whole new fun levels? Deacon Baldy’s Food Truck Park and Bar is doing all they can to support other local businesses. As a local small business who was forced to close most of 2020, they know how hard these times are for others. Deacon Baldy’s is offering a Vendor Night tonight from 6 p.m. - 10 p.m. and inviting small businesses to do a pop-up, free of charge, to allow the chance to get some foot traffic and hopefully promote themselves.
