Despite other orchards/pumpkin patches absolutely price gouging families, Anderson Orchard remains the same and reasonably priced. Hours for September and October: 8am-8pm (or dark) We drove from Noblesville, I was so happy they were still open! Plenty to do for the kids, playground, bounce houses, straw pile, photo ops. They offer U-pick apples & Pumpkins or if you're in a hurry they're ready to grab from the red barn. Pumpkins are super reasonably priced at $.40 a Lb or pie pumpkins for $3. The concession stand is open on Saturday & Sunday. I love the fried biscuits with apple butter & of course you must get the apple cider slushies!! I don't remember seeing it prior, but they had apple cobbler warmed up with ice cream, delicious! I just love this place so much! Don't leave without a bag of apples, Carmel apples, apple cider & get some of those fried biscuits! Highly recommend bringing the whole family.

We had an amazing experience at Hunter's Honey Farm the weekend before Christmas! We got to…read morehand-pour beeswax candles and fill a honey bear with fresh, raw, unfiltered honey--such a fun, hands-on activity that even my teenager and her friend loved. Kelley was fantastic, sharing her knowledge of sustainable beekeeping and the care that goes into producing pure, organic honey straight from the hive. The farm gift shop was stocked with incredible raw, unprocessed honey, honeycomb, and beeswax products--we left with plenty! We're so excited to come back this summer for the Honey House Tour, Beehive Tour, Forestry Tour, and Queen Special Tour! Getting to work a live beehive with a beekeeper and see the honey extraction process will be unforgettable. If you're looking for the best raw, organic honey in Indiana and a truly unique farm experience, Hunter's Honey Farm is a must-visit!

One of our new favorite traditions is cutting down our tree at Hunter's Honey Farm! This year we…read moreactually went out and tagged it when it was warm and then went back on Wednesday to cut it down. So many cool things about that experience... 1) I used a chainsaw for the first time and now I want to cut down all the trees! 2) We put something that wouldn't fit in our car in our relatively new truck bed... it was sooooo big! 3) While I was there, I bought several jars of their honey (again)! They have completely embraced the "hot honey" trend and are making some amazing honeys that are perfect for a nice "drizzle" on pizza, a Christmas ham or even as a sweetener in your green beans or spaghetti sauce! Their service is fantastic and you're even able to taste a few before buying! Go see them for gift baskets or to join their "honey (not jelly) of the month club" #iykyk

This gem near Bloomington is in South Central Indiana's small wine region. There are several good,…read morelocal wineries in this area. This one, however, rocketed to the top of our list among Hoosier wineries whose products we have tried. Not only was the wine a treat, the experience of the visit was also memorable. The facility was very nice, from the impressive external landscaping to the lovely wine shop/tasting bar to the relaxing garden-patio-themed dining area. We visited with the intention of just doing a tasting but ended up having a light lunch along with that tasting. We were glad that we did as the charcuterie board that we ordered was terrific with olives, naan, hummus, chips, cucumbers and more. It was enough to be shareable. But the highlight was still the wine. We also shared the flight as we did not want to overdo it. We tried the Peach Sangrini, Peach Pie, Lemon Moscato, Raspberry Espresso and Sweet Red Lime. All were good but I'd have to say that the standouts to me were the Lemon Moscato, which was refreshing and tasty, and the Sweet Red Lime which delivered what the name implied with a citrusy, lightly sweet flavor. The prices were not bad as I thought it was a good value for what we received. I would be remiss if I did not also note that the service was top-notch. Our server was efficient, attentive and knowledgeable. The greeter was also pleasant and welcoming. It is likewise noteworthy that we had our 8-month-old granddaughter with us, and it was greatly appreciated that they offered a family-friendly experience that accommodated her as well. Our daughter and son-in-law live in Indy, so this place is just an hour or so away. We'll look forward to the next time we can visit as there are several other varieties of wine that appear to be worth trying.

The wide variety of "things" that are made in Indiana was inspiring. There were spices, popcorn, sausages, soaps, lotions, flowers, distilleries and wineries, so it was quite an eye feast and the best part was that several of them had free samples! I didn't have a lot of time to chat with everyone but a few of them mentioned their availability at local farmer's markets during the summer season so I can find many of them in Fishers or Broad Ripple or Binford which is closer to home on the weekend :-) This was a great new event and it was very successful in my mind as I noticed several of my coworkers toting bags of the things they bought on their way home that night. I ended up with charcuterie sausage and a small bottle of the delicious Hotel Tango's Limoncello liqueur. I would welcome this as an annual event... or even more frequent than that.

The Statehouse Market is open each Thursday from 10:30am - 1:30pm from May-October. It is,…read moreessentially, a farmer's market hosted directly at the Indiana Government Center or, in this case, in the Robert D. Orr Plaza. The mission of Statehouse Market is "In order to promote healthier eating habits and support Indiana farmers and businesses, the Statehouse Market gives state employees and customers a location that provides fresh, high quality produce and food products. This outlet is also an opportunity to promote locally grown products and produce." The weekly event is a highlight for Statehouse and Indiana Government Center employees and it's not uncommon to see folks come by from other area office buildings. The Statehouse Market took a hiatus during 2020 due to the pandemic, a time when even most Government Center employees were working from home. However, it has returned this year and is slowly building steam again. Today was downright busy. The event includes typically about a dozen food trucks, a handful of veggie type vendors, and other area businesses ranging from the soon to be open downtown location of Rise n' Roll Donuts to Groomsville Popcorn, Oberweis Dairy, Gluten Free Creations, and a host of others. Food trucks have included the likes of: BoxBurger Truck Brozinni Pizzeria Byrne's Grilled Pizza Chef Dan's Southern Comfort Chomp'z Food Truck Da Blue Lagoon Dashboard Diner Delectable Cuisine Catering Der Pretzel Wagen El Venezolano Greiner's Sub Shop J & J A Taste Of Home Catering Johnson's BBQ Shack Las Tortugas Food Truck and Catering Muay Thai Kitchen Nacho Mama's Food Truck Nicey Treat Ooo Weee Chicken Pastabilitiez Pierogi Love Indy Serendipity Mobile Catering Soladine Concessions Street Chef Sweet Valley Ice Cream Tacos Without Borders Taste of The Caribbean The Legendary Kitchen The NY Slice The Twisted Sicilian Wild Boar BBQ and more. You can also occasionally see government agencies with a table, local colleges, and employees can often find various agencies associated with their daily lives such as insurance providers, banks, etc. I will admit that I contemplated lowering the rating a star because accessibility can occasionally be an issue, but for the most part everyone here does really well. The Statehouse Market recently observed its 9th birthday. The only other time it has been interrupted was one year when it had to be moved over toward the Indiana State Museum due to some rehab going on in the Plaza. That was a rough year for wheelchair users and for anyone trying to squeeze in a food truck on a limited lunch schedule. A lot of folks don't know there is a downtown farmer's market - this is one of downtown Indy's best kept secrets and I look forward to it each week. Today, I visited NY Slice and I've definitely appreciated the variety that is maintained from week to week. Employees are notified each week which vendors will be present and it seems to be the one day when folks really get out of their cubicles and offices and get some fresh air and lunch. If you're in the area, I definitely recommend it.

The property is peaceful and beautiful. The nature trail is wonderful to connect with nature, with gentle ups and downs, trees, and a lake. The farm house has great energy, with comfortable sitting areas and a big deck. I've enjoyed several events here, including their concerts, fall festival, and meditations. I haven't found the staff to be friendly, and I didn't get a response to my email about whether the farm house and its beautiful patio are open any time or just for events. The nature trail closes at 4:00 each day which means no after-work walks, and the farm store is quite small. But it's still a special place and definitely deserves 5 stars.

It's big inside, has a huge and amazing selection of drinks you can see from the bar, open kitchen window, and a nice outside patio. The hostess was nice and we were seated outside. Seems like they prefer reservations, but we were seated immediately. The waitress was helpful as we had never been there before. The petit board which came with crostinis, grain mustard, cornichons. We picked smoked Gouda, potato bacon terrine - basically potatoes wrapped in bacon, and whipped ricotta with honey. Probably wouldn't order this again because the serving sizes were so small. I've had a lot of charcuterie boards and this one was by far the smallest serving size. Never again would I order that. The sticky wings were my favorite! They were sesame-soy glazed chicken wings. So good!! I like how they brought out warm cloths to use because they were messy, but delicious. We for some reason weren't given a dessert menu. I don't know if they didn't have one. We ordered the carrot cake which was good. I wish I knew what all was in though. The cream cheese icing was my favorite. Not heavy and thick. Nice and light! Nice place downtown and would order the sticky wings and the crab cakes next time. I wish the menu would write how many you get though.
