New mobile market on wheels rolls Into Rocky Mount
On a warm August afternoon in Rocky Mount, the parking lot of Baskerville Elementary School comes alive with music, laughter and the unmistakable hum of community energy. Families gather under the summer sun, children chase each other between yard games and the sweet smell of ice cream from Scoops on Main wafts through the air.
