School Bus Converted To Lunch Room
We've featured a lot of uses for school buses over the years. But we'd never seen one turned into a mobile lunch room until an apple grower wrote to tell us about the bus he uses to feed his fruit pickers on breaks.
Cor Versteegh, London, Ontario, bought the 1970's era International 56-passenger school bus for $500.
"We have a farm about two miles from our main place that has no buildings on it so the pickers needed a place to eat," he says. "We took out every other seat and turned every other remaining seat around so half the seats face backwards and half face forwards. Then we bolted 30-in. wide one-legged ply-wood tables to the wall between each seat. There are four tables per side and each table seats four people so seating capacity is 32."
