It's a long drive out in the country but worth the trip!…read more The only negative was our first impression when we walked into the shop. The owner and her employee were in conversation, and neither greeted us, spoke to us, or even nodded. A simple "Hi" with a smile would have made all the difference. Nice selection in the shop. We thoroughly enjoyed the lavender cookies and tea! I loved that they use biodegradable straws and recycle the cups! The shop porch is a lovely spot to sit on a swing and disconnect from the world. In July, the lavender was not in bloom, but that didn't diminish our enjoyment at all. There is a 'secret' path to "The Sanctuary" - a small grove of Osage orange trees. Unfortunately it's not a secret to mosquitoes, so bring big spray. The grounds are beautiful. We enjoyed walking around and taking pictures and buying lavender souvenirs in the gift shop. This place is small, but the country road drive was fun and worth the trip. The smells are heavenly!

Such a hidden gem! I wish more people knew about this place (making assumptions based on the lack…read moreof Yelp reviews when writing this one). Libbe and her husband created such a wonderful space, full of zen! A great way to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and it's only 30 min drive from downtown Indy! There is a cute gift shop, filled with all things lavender! Sleep masks, soaps, lotions, teas, bunches, and more. I was quite literally in my personal heaven. Not only is this a gift shop but you're free to explore the farm and grounds. There is a great space to get away and be surrounded by nature and the woods. It also happens to be a place to rent for events like weddings. Be sure to visit their website/social media for the most updated info on seasonal hours and openings. Be sure to stop by during the season and visit this hidden gem!

Matt Chandler was amazing as I took a resident from Local Memory Care to visit the orchard, this…read morewas her dream to visit an orchard again as her family had an orchard when she was younger, Matt made accommodations, and was able to make this dream a reality. His kindness, willingness to go above and beyond for no other reason than to see a smile on a persons face. Matt knelt down on the ground to talk to resident and made her feel so welcomed and validated. We need more people in the world like Matt, who isn't just in it for business but has a heart to let his light shine. Thank you for making this experience happen, if you are looking for someone who truly cares support this orchard.

Due to construction that's why it's moved to the circle. I noticed today they've added more food trucks which they did need. They definitely could add more. You have lots of visitors and people who work downtown who attend lots of functions that happen on the circle. Flying Dirt Farm, Hunter's Honey Farm, Chez Pauline are ones I always stop at. They have vegetables, flowers, soaps, and more. It seems like when it first started in May it wasn't as busy. Now, you can tell it's picked up. Good for the vendors! Check out the Spark area if you're visiting the market too!

If you happen to be in Indianapolis (say on Market Street, between Delaware and Alabama Streets) on…read moreany Wednesday (say between the hours of 9:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m.} between May and October, consider yourself to be very lucky. Because of you meet all those requirements, you can visit Indianapolis' Original Farmers' Market and have a terrific time. Market Street is closed to vehicular traffic during the Farmers Market, so it gets transformed into a pedestrian mall. There must have been 50 vendors on both sides of the street. And what might those vendors sell? Probably every type of fruit and vegetable grown in the state of Indiana, plus spices, ciders, baked goods, oils, vinegars, eggs, meats, granola, wine, flowers, beef jerky, coffees, guacamole, salsa, tostadas, soap, cosmetics, honey, popcorn, lemonade, bakery goodies, egg rolls, pet foods, teas, coffee, and cocktail mixes. It's a gorgeous sensory overload of reds and oranges and yellows and greens as you see stall after stall of amazing looking produce. I picked up some great beef jerky and a bottle of cocktail mix from Tailored Toddies. This was one helluva great Farmers Market!

It's a lovely market. It's very simple the layout basically one big circle. I wish I could find the name of the lady that had a table FULL of vases of flowers. They were stunning!!! She's not only a good floral designer, but I can't imagine what her flower gardens look like. She filled them full with flowers. Rock of Etches has sand engraved pottery. Had to buy my dad a Hoosiers mug. They had Pacers, Purdue, I U mugs. They had other neat pieces of pottery too. They had so many different small businesses there. Food, gifts, soaps, candles, signs you name it. Will definitely be back!! I was surprised how much stuff I found. Going to be wearing my new Indiana earrings with my Pacers shirt for the big game!

On the other hand, I very much appreciate the addition of Limelight Coffee serving up Cold Brew and ADH Teas offering locally blended teas. I can't get enough of their Spanish Lemon iced tea. Along with these two beverages you can always find me munching on a bag of D&S Kettle Corn. All of their popping corn is Indiana grown and they use Indiana maple syrup on their maple corn offering but I highly recommend the sweet & salty. Not a huge fan of kettle corn? They are happy to pop up a batch of plain for you as well. This year is a growing year for the market. It will take some time to get used to the new location & new name but with the addition of more produce vendors and readily available food options this market (fingers crossed) will get its groove back.
