posted by SPD Communications on September 17, 2018 Market Pumpkin Pic

With only three Statehouse Market days remaining, we’re finishing the 2018 season strong with an amazing lineup of food trucks, produce vendors and true artisans whose craftsmanship shines through in everything they sell.

That means the last few markets will be just as much fun as the dozen and a half we’ve already hosted this summer. Check us out this Thursday on Robert D. Orr Plaza to get a (literal) taste of some of the best food in the Indianapolis area.

We’ll be there from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

Market Week 14 looks peachy-keen!

posted by SPD Communications on August 20, 2018 Peaches

Contrary to what some may think, you really don’t have to move to the country to eat a lot of peaches.

Actually, all you have to do is drop by the Statehouse Market between 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. this Thursday to see an array of nectarines that might be the envy of even the most accomplished Georgia farmers.

And the peaches brought by our amazing lineup of produce vendors certainly don’t come from a can, nor were they put there by someone in a manufacturing facility… downtown or anywhere else. Nope. They’re Hoosier-grown and painstakingly cared for to peak ripeness.

Personally, if we had our little way, we’d probably go ahead and eat peaches every day, and we think you’ll feel the same.

Okay, that’s enough quasi-obscure ’90s Alternative music references for one week, but, in case you haven’t already noticed, we think the Statehouse Market is the perfect place to celebrate National Peach Month. You’ll find plenty of those delectable treats sharing booth real estate with dozens of other fruits and veggies just waiting to be part of your healthy dinner.

All that joins coffee, honey products, pies, artisan ketchup and mustard, dairy products, fresh flowers and so much more!

Oh, and be sure to scope out the dozen or so food trucks lined up to provide customers with an amazingly delicious lunch. As always, these entrepreneurs will be bringing some of the best street food the Indy area has to offer!

We’ll be enjoying it all on Robert D. Orr Plaza Aug. 23; and if you’d take time to join us, well, we think that would be just peachy.

Week 10 is here!

posted by SPD Communications on July 23, 2018 Statehouse Market Week 10

Is there anything more summer-like than a farmers market?

Corn, cucumbers, squash and potatoes share table space with blueberries, peaches, and other freshly-picked fruit spread out under sunny blue skies.

Artisan goods crafted from honey and healthy (and delicious!) salad dressing fashioned from only the best ingredients join one-of-a-kind popcorn, baked goods tailored to fit almost any diet and some of the finest coffee ever brewed.

Oh, and a fleet of the Indy area’s best-loved food trucks have lunch covered with sandwiches, pizza and so much more!

The sights, the sounds and especially the smells practically scream summer!

So make plans to meet us on Robert D. Orr Plaza for Week 10 of the Statehouse Market. We’ll be there from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Thursday, July 26 — and every Thursday — for the rest of the season.

Market rolls on to Week 5!

posted by SPD Communications on June 18, 2018 Statehouse Market - Week 5

As the process of repairing the water damage in IGC-N continues, the Statehouse Market will go on as scheduled this Thursday, June 21.

As was the case in Week 4, some food trucks/trailers will be located in the daycare drop-off. There’s bound to be plenty of great lunch options there. The rest of the food trucks and our produce and specialty vendors will set-up on Robert D. Orr Plaza as usual. Coffee, popcorn, baked goods, dairy products, fresh produce, flowers, pizza and sandwiches make up a small sample of the items up for sale at the Statehouse Market each week.

Meanwhile, the restorative equipment is expected to remain on the plaza throughout the month of June, meaning that the locations of some popular vendors has temporarily changed, and your favorite food truck may be parked in the adjacent lot.

Please check out the daycare lot if you don’t see your preferred food truck parked on Robert D. Orr Plaza.

Trust us, the assortment of homegrown Hoosier produce, deliciously indulgent street food (with plenty of health-minded options), and myriad other items for sale are more than worth any extra walking — rain or shine.

After all, that’s just another way to get your steps in on the way to “producing a healthier you.”

Check out this week’s lineup below and meet us outside from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. We hope to see you there!
