Based in Asheville, NC, The Garden offers unique food truck-style catering for private events and weddings. From farm to trailer, they can offer you and your loved ones seasonal-inspired cuisine made with local, sustainable ingredients.
Owner Simone Jaramillo created her food truck business as a reflection of her respect and love of food. She was raised in rural northern New Mexico in a family where her father taught her how to grow food as soon as she could walk and where her mother made three meals a day from scratch, often using ingredients from the family garden or local meat from their deep freeze in the shed. “My childhood kitchen was always a happening space in the home, freshly baked goods on the counter, simmering pots on the stove, a pantry full of preserved jellies, canned peaches. When I imagine the kitchen of my childhood, warm light, delicious smells and bright colors come to mind. Feeding people was what I grew up knowing how to do. It has always been one of my love languages.” The ritual of growing food, cooking, gathering people, and feeding them brings her joy. Simone’s independent spirit, creativity and artistic background made the entrepreneurial dream of her food truck business a natural evolution as she believes in her vocation being an embodiment of her heart’s expression. Her emphasis of valuing sustainability, human connection, local agriculture and community is at the heart of what her business is made of and she is excited to continue leaning deeper into these values as she continues to grow her business. The team at The Garden would love to provide this unique catering service for you on your special day to make it a memorable and delicious experience.
