Major cities all have food truck parks like this; it’s a progressive move for St. Louis.”  “This is the future of food trucks in St. Louis,” said Bryan Scott, owner of Doggie Mac’s. “It’s the kind of thing I envisioned when I opened my truck, and it’s what will drive the popularity of food trucks over the top in St. Louis. We all enjoy having a variety of foods in one place, and when you add in the opportunity to socialize and gather as a community, it’s a game-changer for our city. There’s nothing like it here.”   Six days a week, 9 Mile Garden will have a daily rotation of St. Louis’ best and most beloved food trucks open for lunch and dinner services. There will be a jumbo screen for outdoor movies and to live stream sporting events. Additionally, a permanent stage will play host to local and national entertainers sharing like music and performances.  9 Mile Garden will also be dog friendly.  “Our vision is to create a destination where people from around St. Louis and beyond come together to enjoy food, entertainment, and community in a family-friendly environment,” said Brian Hardesty, managing partner of 9 Mile Garden. “By creating a daily food truck destination, we are also investing in the economic stability of our local food truck scene, delivering crowds of hungry diners to the doors of the chefs and food makers who continue to drive innovation and opportunity in our local culinary scene.”  The park grounds can be rented for private events such as weddings, corporate events, fundraisers, reunions and more.
