St. Croix Stories

Derek Hom, Wilder Waffle Co.

Tyler Mason

If you were going to start your own food truck, what would you serve? For Hudson resident Derek Hom, the choice was simple: waffles. After the birth of his son, Derek quit his job to launch Wilder Waffle Co., a food truck serving delicious waffles  in Hudson and the surrounding area. Since taking the leap of leaving his corporate job, Derek hasn't looked back. His schedule now allows for more flexibility with his family, and his waffle truck remains in demand in the community.

On this week's episode of St. Croix Stories, hear from Derek about why he chose waffles, what exactly a liege style waffle is, and the lessons he's learned about owning and operating a food truck now that he's in his second year with Wilder Waffle Co.
