How do you know it’s finally summer in NOCO? Like leaves on trees and plants and flowers in your garden, food trucks are popping up everywhere – the parks, the breweries, maybe even on a nearby street corner. They dot our landscape with their colorful, eclectic and often vintage designs, offering an amazing array of creative cuisines. Thinking of going into the business, or just curious about what goes on inside? Turn to page 12, for a behind-the-scenes look at food trucks.
The Foundry in Loveland is debuting a summer series of concerts, outdoor movies, farmers markets and fitness events.

Looking for non-profit events to support?

For dog lovers, Harley’s Dream is holding a weekend of festivities June 14-16 in Berthoud to raise awareness about puppy mills.
