Lunch & Learn Series
Growing Places Indy hosts a summer Lunch & Learn Series at The Platform at City Market. Each week's conversation features a panel of local food community leaders and experts, with time for audience engagement as well. The series is free and open to anyone interested in attending, and it is not necessary to reserve a place in advance.

Summer Farm Stand

We offer a weekly summer farm stand on-site at the Chase Near Eastside Legacy Center. Shoppers do not have to be members of the Legacy Center to shop at the farm stand and we encourage area residents as possible to make this a regular stop for their weekly vegetables. We accept EBT for Farm Stand purchases, and offer up to a $5 weekly match on EBT purchases.

2013 Farm Stand Hours: Thursdays 4:00-6:00 p.m. Open June 6th - August 8th (closed July 4th)
