🌱 Food Trucks Hosted This Summer + Latest Listings In The Duluth Area

Hello again, Duluth! Important update: You all, as readers, have made the Duluth Daily so successful that it is my honor to announce the next stage of the newsletter. Patch is looking for a local writer and entrepreneur to take the helm of the Duluth Daily. Although I have loved getting to know this community, we want to pass the torch to someone truly local to write about Duluth long term. So if you’re interested in earning extra income while making this newsletter a more valuable resource for your neighbors, learn more and apply here.

First, today's weather:

Mostly cloudy. High: 73 Low: 53.

Here are the top three stories today in Duluth:

1. From May to September, food trucks will take over Downtown Duluth at Fridays-N-Duluth. Get ready to experience exotic flavors and local cuisine while listening to live entertainment on the Festival Center Stage and in Parsons Alley. Vendor applications are now open; though the food truck lineup is set for the season, you can still apply for the waitlist. (DuluthGA.net)
2. Are you in the market for a new place and need help keeping tabs on all the latest listings? Patch has created a sampling of the newest batch of properties to go for sale in and around the Duluth area. Check out this four-bedroom, three-bath family home listed by Dennie Jones and Keller Williams Realty Atlanta Partners. (Duluth Patch)
3. Shoott is a small, female-run company whose mission is to make professional photography more accessible while providing stability and opportunity to freelance photographers. Staff will be hosting 30-minute free-to-book mini sessions to photoshoot outdoors at local parks and iconic locations. Capture you and your loved ones and only pay for the photos you love!
