This is Jack, Feast Down East's Truck Driver, one of the most important team members we have! Without Jack's amazing truck driving skills we wouldn't be able to deliver seasonal local ingredients from our farmers to your favorite local establishments from restaurants, grocers and nonprofit organizations.
"I'm very proud to be apart of Feast Down East, and enjoy working with local farmers and chefs." says Jack.
If you see Jack making deliveries around town this week, be sure to give him a shoutout. It's National truck driver week, and we are so thankful for all of the truck drivers who keep the world going, especially Jack! #nationaltruckdriverappreciationweek #truckdrivers #FeastDownEast #burgaw #downtownwilmington #WilmingtonNC #eatlocal
