Produce This Week
Local produce this week includes lettuce, kale, turnips, rhubarb, tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, kale, green onions and spinach.
Meet the Vendors: Neier Farms and Produce Since 2002, Neier Farms has used organic processes to grow produce on their farm in Coatesville. On their farm you will find greenhouses specializing in hanging baskets, planters, and over 125 cage free chickens. The produce is hand-picked by their family with the majority of it being picked the day you receive it, which allows them to sell their produce at the peak of ripeness.
You will often see a bounty of hanging flower baskets at their stand, and the entire family. Follow them on Facebook to see some great photos of life on the farm and delicious dinners made with fresh produce right here in Hendricks County!
Live Music
Live music will be performed by alternative influenced singer/songwriter Chris Burch.
