Southern Swap Meet to Raise Funds for Street Food Coalition
Come enjoy street food, art and vendors while raising money for the Atlanta Street Food Coalition.
Support street food in Atlanta.
The Atlanta Street Food Coalition is holding a fundraising event this Saturday. Proceeds will help the coalition lobby for a regulatory system that allows food trucks to operate in Atlanta. Currently, city and county ordinances limit the operation of food trucks.
Called the Southern Swap Meet, the festival will merge food, art and culture at the Goat Farm in West Midtown. It will be held from 2:30 to 11:30 p.m. Tickets are $5.
