Batesville, IN—The Food & Growers Association has announced a new partnership with Hoosier Harvest Market, a food hub that has serviced Central Indiana for 8 years. It has formed a sub-hub called Hoosier Harvest Market Southeast.
In addition to all the wonderful ways a consumer can obtain local food (farmers markets, road-side stands, direct sales from farmers, home delivery services, CSA’S), this program will give our Southeast Indiana consumers a way to order local food online from local southeastern Indiana farmers. Kathy Cooley indicates, “this program will hopefully bring a greater diversity of products to our local customers.”
To order, click here and set up an account. Indicate your distribution location as HHM Southeast and Tuesday/Wednesday as your pick up time and when ordering, southeastern Indiana area farmer’s products will populate your product availability as well as other central Indiana farmer’s products that will be able to be distributed in this area.
The ordering window is from Wednesday at 1 pm through Sunday midnight. Farmers will be posting available products in that time period. The pick up of the ordered product will be on Tuesday from 4 to 6 pm at Dotty’s Bulk Foods in Batesville. A second pickup site will be added at Beneker Family Farms near St. Leon in the coming weeks. Information will be on the website. Ordering is no open. Any farmers interested in participating should reach out to Value Chain Coordinator, Oak Hawk, at [email protected] or 765-561-6207.
