The Bad Seed Food Truck

Last year, we announced some changes to the Grand Marais food scene. One of these changes was the addition of The Bad Seed, a food tent that was previously located next to The Beaver House. Now, we are ecstatic to announce the addition of The Bad Seed Food Truck to downtown Grand Marais. Now located behind Joy & Co. at 16 1st Ave W, The Bad Seed Food Truck offers the same amazing food options that the food tent offered, but in a more wind-proof setting. No more having to close during windy weather!

Christina Hartley-Conroy, the mastermind behind The Bad Seed, was able to secure the financing needed to purchase the food truck just a couple of weeks ago. Very quickly, she was able to get the truck set up and officially opened on June 3rd.
