The Indianapolis Winter Farmers Market enables Indianapolis’ urban residents to purchase vegetables, fruit, meat, baked goods, herbs, natural cleaning products and other locally produced food & household products straight from regional farmers. By directly connecting farmers and producers to Indianapolis area residents, the IWFM supports family farms, preserves farmland, delivers fresh healthy produce to Indianapolis residents, and reduces the environmental effects that result from food traveling across the country or world.
Our first objective is to provide a venue for Indiana’s sustainably-minded family farms, and small-batch/artisan food producers to sell what they produce, thus helping preserve and sustain our food cultures, traditions, and resources for production. Our second objective is to make it possible for our customers and their families to have access to local, fresh, nutritious food. Our third objective is to create a welcoming environment that encourages relationship and community, and which raises awareness of nearby local businesses, and organizations working across the city and the state to foster social and environmental responsibility toward a more sustainable future.
