Memphis Eats: Farm 2 Cart

February 19, 2015 by Mary

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure for details.

Last week I attended a local coworking day to work at the same place as colleagues I don’t see very often. I previously worked at a coworking space so highly value the concept and getting to spend time with people who work in related fields. It’s a great environment for productivity and creativity.

For lunch there was a local food cart called Farm 2 Cart set up outside the coworking space. Since I like to try new things I decided to try it out!

Farm 2 Cart is a a little food cart that offers sausages (Italian, Andouille, or Bratwurst) on a couple different bun options. It is often set up at several farmers markets around town and makes lunch day stops at different places like the coworking space.

I was excited to try it out because I’ve got a strange obsession with food trucks and food carts. It’s something I never had when growing up so it still feels fun and new to me! I’ve eaten at so many over the years as an adult and it is still awesome!

I chose to get an italian sausage topped with sauerkraut and pepper relish. You can imagine my delight when I learned that pepper relish was a topping option – I love that stuff!

I also added some spicy brown mustard to finish it off.

Overall the taste of the sausage was more subtle than I expected and it ended up being a slightly sweeter than I expected. I thought the pepper relish would be more flavorful and spicy than it was, but after the initial confusion I found it to compliment the sausage well. The toppings helped make it more complex and added taste to every bite. This was the perfect lunch for a freezing cold day, even if I had to wait outside to get it!

The sausage is locally-sourced from Renaissance Farms Tennessee and the bun is from La Baguette French Bread and Pastry Shop, another local shop. It’s always nice to eat local so I was happy to support three local businesses in one with this meal! It’s more expensive to support local than if I was buying a cheap hot dog at a big box store, and the cost for a meal was $7.

I fell in love with the bread so I’ll be visiting La Baguette soon. It’s SO GOOD.

Overall I’m a big fan of Farm 2 Cart and their mission to use and promote local food that is of a higher quality than what you might find in a standard hot dog cart. As someone who is trying to eat locally more often, I appreciate this effort.
