Hey everyone — we have a lot to share.
First, we are deeply saddened to report that our beloved Sammich Bus’s engine seized up last Saturday after our weekly stop at Bryan Park. Unfortunately, the bus has been deemed beyond repair. This puts us in a tough spot, as we need to stay mobile to continue serving all of you beautiful people. We’re currently exploring our options for moving forward, which will ultimately mean acquiring a new unit.
Our community has already stepped up in an incredible way. This morning, the kind folks at The Martin Agency heard about our situation and set up a GoFundMe to help raise funds for future Sammich wheels. We are truly grateful to have such a loving and supportive fan base. Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the past 10+ years. We hope to be back soon with a new setup. If you’re able to help, amazing — and if you can spread the word, we’d appreciate it so much.
In the meantime, our dear friends at Kitchenette have generously offered to let us use their trailer as a temporary solution while we figure out what Sammich 2.0 will look like. We’ll be taking their trailer out tomorrow, 12/6, to the farmers market at Bryan Park for its maiden voyage with our equipment, from 9:00–12:00.
Sammich has become a staple for people working in downtown Richmond, thanks to years o… Matt Wieringo needs your support for Help Sammich Get Back on the Road
