Week 20: The last Statehouse Market of 2018!

posted by SPD Communications on October 2, 2018 SHM Week 20

All good things must eventually come to an end and the Statehouse Market is no different.

For the last 20 weeks, we’ve been privileged to bring some of the Hoosier State’s finest farmers, artisans and food truck entrepreneurs to Robert D. Orr Plaza each Thursday for a fun time in the sun. And sometimes rain.

We hope you’ve enjoyed the 2018 season as much as we have and we look forward to meeting you for lunch this Thursday!

Saying goodbye is no picnic, but hold back those tears! The market will return in 2019 with amazing street food from an awesome assortment of food trucks, the finest produce in The Hoosier State, and carefully crafted goods that belong on every shelf.

Just thinking about it has us wishing it was already next summer! Until then, stop by Robert D. Orr Plaza between 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. this Thursday, Oct. 4, for the 2018 Statehouse Market curtain call.

We can’t wait to see you there!

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.

Statehouse Market Week 16: The post-Labor Day homestretch begins!

posted by SPD Communications on August 31, 2018 Statehouse Market Week 16

Labor Day weekend is traditionally seen as the unofficial end of summer.

Gone are the barbecues and pool parties, and in their place Hoosiers ready for sweatshirt weather, football and pumpkin spice-flavored everything.

Well, according to our calendars, there are five — count ’em — FIVE Statehouse Markets remaining in 2018. And since the farmer’s market on Robert D. Orr Plaza is pretty much synonymous with the warm rays of summer in Indy, we think there’s still plenty of fun in the sun left this year.

We’re so confident, in fact, that we might even (gasp!) wear white clothing after Labor Day!

Yes, it’s a potential fashion faux pas, but that’s just how daring we can be — at least when it comes to choosing pants in September.

And why not?

After all, that’s the sort of trend-bucking, devil-may-care Hoosier spirit you’ll see each Thursday at the market as some of the area’s top farmers, artisans, entrepreneurs and mobile restaurant maestros gather for an event the smells of which alone simply scream “summer.”

So keep the shades handy and the warm weather wardrobe at the ready. Summer’s far from over, and we hope you’ll enjoy these last few Market Days with us – rain or shine, summer weather or fall-like chilly temperatures.

As always, we’ll meet you for lunch on the plaza between 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.

We’ll see you Thursday! Until then, keep looking on the sunny side of life and check out the Sept. 6 lineup below.

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.

A dozen Statehouse Markets down, plenty to go

posted by SPD Communications on August 6, 2018 Statehouse Market Week 12

We’re already a dozen weeks into the 2018 Statehouse Market season!

That’s 12 wonderful weeks of peaches, blueberries, potatoes, cantaloupe, eggplant, peppers, green beans and so much more!

With 10 more markets to go, we hope you’ll visit us on Robert D. Orr Plaza each Thursday and see the selection of amazing goods for yourself. You can start this week by meeting us outside from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

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.
