We are excited to welcome two Native American Food Trucks, Trickster Tacos and Wild Harvest Lemonade, to campus on Thursday, June 19, for the Crossings and Connections Conference. This special culinary opportunity aims to promote continued opportunities to reflect on the impact that Norwegian migration had on the Native American populations, while also introducing new Urban Native cuisine to conference attendees.

Trickster Tacos will be serving their popular urban fry bread tacos and taco bowls. You will be able to choose any one of their menu options:

  • Traditional Beef Taco, Key Lime Chicken Taco, Soy Chorizo Taco (Vegetarian/Vegan), Medicine Taco Bowl with Minnesota Wild Rice (GF/Vegan), Taco Salad with Choice of Meat (GF)

Wild Harvest Lemonade will be keeping us refreshed with their lip-smacking infused lemonades. You will have the opportunity to decide which all natural infusion(s) you would like to try.

And then for dessert we will enjoy a sweet commemorative treat from one of our favorite Northfield bakeries, Bread People.

The food trucks will be serving up lunch on Buntrock Plaza from 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. You are welcome to take your lunch indoors to one of the many tables in Buntrock Commons or eat outside on the Plaza and the Green.

Lunch is included in the full conference registration and also Thursday all-day registration.
Lunch is not included in commuter registration and is not available as an add-on.
