Where She Comes From, and How It Works

AMERICA does not operate from Palm Beach Gardens. She lives at The Bell Farm, 16140 Okeechobee Blvd in Loxahatchee, where she serves walk-up Thursday to Sunday. A Palm Beach Gardens event is a booking: you give us the date, the address, the head count and the start and end time, and she comes to you for that window and goes home afterwards.

We have not published a travel fee, a service radius or a Palm Beach Gardens price list, and we will not make one up on this page. The published numbers are the same everywhere on this site, and your address gets an itemized quote in writing. The cost of food truck catering, explained →

Who Can Actually Tell You No in Palm Beach Gardens
Gatekeeper 1 — the State
The licence is already handled
A food truck in Florida is licensed by the state as a Mobile Food Dispensing Vehicle under Chapter 509, Florida Statutes. AMERICA holds MFD1654011. Under s. 509.102 a city or county may not require a separate licence or permit beyond it, or ban food trucks across its whole jurisdiction.
Gatekeeper 2 — the City
Its own building department, and its own land-use rules
Palm Beach Gardens runs its own building department. It is not Palm Beach County’s building division, which serves unincorporated areas such as Loxahatchee and The Acreage. The City still controls zoning, parking, signage and noise, and any event on public ground, a process that belongs to whoever is hosting.
Gatekeeper 3 — the association
The one that actually stops bookings
Most Palm Beach Gardens addresses sit under an HOA or master association. State preemption limits what a government may require. It does nothing to a private covenant, so the declaration, the board and the guard-gate rules decide whether a bus may come in.
Gatekeeper 4 — the property
Whoever owns the ground
A club, an office park, a church or a private lot sets its own vendor terms: insurance, load-in times, generator placement and what may touch the turf. On private property this is often the only approval a small event needs.
⚖️
Said plainly, and not as legal advice: the licensing question is settled by state law and we hold the licence. Zoning, parking, signage, noise and public-ground events belong to the City, the covenant question belongs to your association, and the ground belongs to its owner. Confirm each for your own address before the date is set.
Communities, in the Words Residents Use

Palm Beach Gardens is a city of named communities, and an event here usually means an address inside one: PGA National, BallenIsles, Mirasol, Frenchman’s Creek, Evergrene and the many neighbourhoods around them. Most are gated and run through an association. We list them because they are where residents say they live, not because we have catered in any of them: no past event in Palm Beach Gardens is claimed on this page.

What that means for a booking is practical rather than promotional. Ask your manager three things before you call: whether the guard gate takes a vendor list, what the community’s quiet hours are, and whether the clubhouse or the board needs to approve a vendor on common property. We will send a vendor packet with the state licence the same day, so the answer can go to the board in one email.

The Credential Stack Behind the Bus

AMERICA runs on Florida Mobile Food Dispensing Vehicle licence MFD1654011 under Chapter 509, Florida Statutes, issued April 2, 2026, and operates as an FDACS-registered agritourism farm. The company behind her, Bell Engineering and Construction Corporation, has operated continuously since February 2009 and is a BBB A+ Accredited Business.

The owner is a Florida state-certified general contractor (CGC1528750) and roofing contractor (CCC1332751), so he may contract in any Florida county, and holds Community Association Manager licence CAM34850 and management-firm licence CAB3255, which is why a board’s vendor questions are familiar ground. The company holds Palm Beach County business tax receipts for its contracting trades. A business tax receipt is a local tax registration, not a licence, and no City of Palm Beach Gardens receipt is claimed.

🚌
Checking a date costs nothing. Farm-to-table board off the FDACS Florida crops calendar. Private catering from $800, weddings and larger catering from $2,500, farm dinners at The Bell Farm $150 per person with a ten-guest minimum.

Food Truck Catering in Palm Beach Gardens — FAQ

Do I need a City of Palm Beach Gardens permit to have a food truck at my party?

For a private event on private property, there is generally no separate food-truck licence to obtain from the City. Florida Statute 509.102 preempts the regulation of mobile food dispensing vehicles as to licences, registrations, permits and fees to the state, and AMERICA holds state licence MFD1654011. Palm Beach Gardens runs its own building department and its own zoning and event rules, and those still govern land use, parking, signage and any event on public ground. That event process belongs to the host. This is not legal advice: call (561) 779-3213 with the address and we will say which gatekeeper applies.

My community in Palm Beach Gardens is gated. Can the bus get in?

Usually, with notice. Many Palm Beach Gardens communities are gated and run by a master association with sub-associations beneath it, so the bus, the driver and the arrival window need to be on the guard-gate list before the day, and the association's own vendor and quiet-hours rules apply. The state licence does not override a private covenant. Send a photo of the approach and of where you want the bus parked, and we will check the turn-around, the overhead clearance and the ground.

How much does food truck catering cost in Palm Beach Gardens?

Private catering with AMERICA starts at $800 per event. Weddings and larger catering start at $2,500. A seated private farm dinner at The Bell Farm in Loxahatchee is $150 per person with a ten-guest minimum. We have not published a travel fee or a Palm Beach Gardens price, so call (561) 779-3213 with your date, address and head count and we will quote it in writing.

Where does AMERICA operate from, and how do I book her in Palm Beach Gardens?

AMERICA is a hand-converted 1979 Blue Bird bus based at The Bell Farm, 16140 Okeechobee Blvd, Loxahatchee, where she serves walk-up Thursday to Sunday. Catering in Palm Beach Gardens is by booking only: she comes to a host for a set event at an agreed time. We do not park her on public streets to sell. Call (561) 779-3213 or send the form at the top of this page with your date and guest count.

Does a food truck at a Palm Beach Gardens event need to meet the hurricane-zone product rules?

No special zone applies. The High-Velocity Hurricane Zone product-approval rules in the Florida Building Code cover only Miami-Dade and Broward counties, and Palm Beach Gardens is in Palm Beach County, outside that zone. A food truck is a licensed vehicle rather than a building, so the practical wind question is the host's: a tent, canopy or stage at the event is a separate item to check with the City and the supplier. Hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, so settle the named-storm reschedule terms in writing before paying a deposit.
