SAN ANTONIO — The Castroville community is coming together to help a family rebuild after losing their business in a fire.
According to community members, Gabe and Abigail Alcorta followed their dreams five years ago, and started a business called A & G’s Sweet Treats.
The popular spot grew from a small sno-cone and nachos stand to a booming food truck catering business.
In April, the Alcorta’s lost the business to a fire. The food truck was completely destroyed.
The Alcorta’s have been trying to do what they can to make ends meet for their two children, and then a few days after the fire, the couple found out they were expecting their third child.
A fundraiser is planned for Sunday from 4 to 8 pm at Schattenbol at Decock Farms, 2374 US-90 E in Castroville.
An all-star line-up of local musicians will be taking the stage. The event will also include a silent auction and lots of good food.

If you can’t attend the event, but want to help the family, a Go-FundMe has also been set up to help the Alcorta family.
