Zionsville Farmers Market

This is a pretty nifty spot for a sunny Saturday morning! The hubs and kiddos tagged along, and it was nice to get out, gets some local eats and enjoy the day.
They had a nice selection at the time: honey, apples, bread, pastries, local bacon, sausage, ground meats, flowers, art, and music. A teenage trio on two violins and a keyboard played versions of popular songs. They even did «Let It Go», which the girls immediately flocked toward. I said if they liked them, you should tip them. Guess who was actually tipping? It was worth it to get all excited and throwing some change into a violin case.
It’s not the best of the best, but it’s still a growing market. Hopefully, we’ll see some new additions next summer!

I love going to farmers markets and the Zionsville Farmers market is just so charming it is hard not to love it. It is a bit small but with the charm of the brick paved town it is like being at a place out of a movie.
My favorite thing and a must try is B Happy Peanut Butter… wow you will be amazed! I am now an addict for this stuff. The only bad news is they only have a booth every other weekend.

I absolutely love the Zionsville Farmers Market. Before I opened up my coffee shop, Darrin’s Coffee Company, I sold my coffee at the Farmers Market on Zionsville and in Greenwood. There is a wide selection of foods, and the vendors are fantastic to be around. A suggestion I would make to let make the market the best market possible would be to have some sort of limit on dogs or a dog warning policy. I’ve seen dogs snap at each other, kids and the occasional… Fortunately, the owners picked up after their pet, but if you’re a vendor, the last thing you want to occur is to have a dog do his/​her business right in front of your business! That’s it.

It’s not as large as, say, the Carmel or Broad Ripple Farmers markets, that’s true.
But, at least to me, the quality of the produce and other items this Zionsville market is generally higher than any other market in the area.
In addition to produce, foods, plants, they often have one or two community/​charity booths set up, which I find to be a very nice touch.
I’ve visited with the staff/​volunteers of the market from time to time, and they’ve always been friendly and helpful. My favorite farmers market in the area!

All you need somehow crammed into a small parking lot: best melon on planet earth, sweet corn, breads, coffee, apples, berries, peaches, multiple vegetable vendors, meats (most of the time). Come hungry: breakfast burrito or a donut and a coffee will keep you going. About ¼ size of Carmel farmers market, more of a small town feel.

This is my favorite (and local) farmers market.
Great, fresh, reliable vendors every week (even if theres a lil rain in the forecast).
My favs…
Darrins Coffee (even though there just down the street I like that there here now and they make AMAZING coffee!)
My Sugar Pie (.uhh Pie and coffee for breakfst. YESSIR!)
The handmade pasta lady (not sure of the official name but killer pasta next to the Tamale guy).
Honestly you can go wrong with ay of the vendors here.
I still have fresh cut flowers I got from the Amish farmers 2 weeks agao that are still looking great.

Today was a fun day at the Zionsville market. It was strawberry shortcake day, with the market organization handing out free strawberry shortcake! It was delicious. I really like the Zionsville market, it reminds me of New England farmers markets. Everybody is so friendly and dogs are allowed. There is a varied assortment of food and flower booths. I always start out with a breakfast burrito. Today I had a pork and egg burrito, with their special green sauce. It was really good. My husband always grabs a coffee and follows me around. My favorite booth is a man from Lafayette that makes italien breadsticks, garlic knot rolls, strombolis, and my fav cannoli. The cannolis are three dollars and are authentic. I also always buy the garlic cheese knots. Get there early he sells out of the cannoli early! I also bought a large cherry tomato plant for $ 5.

Absolutely love it. Zionsville has such a charming downtown so it is fun to walk around once you’ve bought your goodies at the market. I enjoy meeting up with friends, buying fresh flowers, some delicious food & then getting brunch nearby. It can get pretty crowded as it is in a rather small area but it is still worth a visit!

Some excellent vendors that provide consistent high quality foods (bakery and cheese come to mind easily)

20 vendors market, small but with great produce. Most of vendors grow their own produce. I am vendor at Broadripple farmers market and Carmel farmers market, but I really like this market; friendly people and great variety of fresh produce. Parking may be a little hard.

This is my first farmer’s market review. I wouldn’t normally go this far out of my way to visit a farmer’s market because there are several, much closer, markets to my home, but this was a scheduled stop on a Central Indiana Bicycling Association (CIBA) Saturday morning ride.
I typically frequent farmer’s markets more for the dining experience than the shopping experience and this time was no exception.
The market is pretty small, but there were more than enough dining options for me. I had an excellent pulled pork breakfast burrito and a great calzone as well.
As for the shopping, I noticed many of the same vendors as at other markets around the city.
Would I go this far out of the way to eat here again? Probably not. However, if I’m in the neighborhood I would definitely swing by.

My only critique of the Zionsville Farmer’s Market? That it’s not open all year long! We have been visiting this particular Farmer’s Market for as long as we can remember. While it’s not the biggest market in the area, there is a nice variety of items and everyone is friendly. What’s more, our little ones like to «pet the puppies» — and they allow friendly dogs on leashes. For a special Saturday morning activity with the family, visit the Zionsville Farmer’s Market

When we were living more in West Carmel, this was our favorite Saturday spot. There were always a number of fresh baked goods to try, all the fab corn on the cob, tomatoes and raspberries one can hope for and fabulous people working the booths. Friendly, not too big, numerous choices and never overly crowded. I love that it’s walking distance to other great shops and restaurants in Zionsville as well. I highly recommend if you live in the area or nearby… well, worth a trip for some fabulous local goodies!

This thing is doggie heaven. And I don’t mean little dogs I mean dogs that might be half horse. It was an incredible sight.
I was a little underwhelmed by the smallness of this, but they did have a lot of variety! Fresh fruits and veggies, fresh breads, cupcakes, other homemade cookies. The most outstanding at this event are the pies from «My Sugar Pie». The owner/​pie maker (also the sweetest thing ever) was mostly out by the time we got there so I made sure to grab her card. I special ordered three pies the next week and they were literally THE BEST (and I mean THE BEST) pies I’ve ever tasted in my life. She even bakes and gives them to you in glass pie dishes! Who does this?! The crust is divine, the filling, whatever you choose, will blow you to pie paradise. The chocolate chip pie is my FAVORITE. A mixture of pie and warm gooey delicious chocolate chip cookie. YUM! This is all coming from a girl who normally cannot STAND pie. Check her out!

I prefer the Zionsville Farmer’s Market to the one in Carmel. Like Carmel, Zionsville runs its market from June through September.
Unfortunately, there is no Web site, no phone number and no specific street address for this market. But, if you simply head into the heart of the village of Zionsville, you can’t miss the market.
I haven’t run across any specifics about what is and isn’t allowed at this venue, but I can tell you that our visits rendered more choice than in Carmel, including: homemade bread-​n-​butter pickles, fresh roasted corn on the cob (that was FREE!) and two herb-​infused olive oils that we used to make the best sub sandwiches of the summer! I also spied some yummy-​looking baked goods and potted herbs for sale.
The great thing about going here — that you don’t get in Carmel — is that you can stash your market items in the car, depending on the weather and what you bought of course, and head out for a stroll of the old village. Most of the shops surrounding the farmer’s market are open during market hours and several put sale displays outside or prop doors open to beckon you. Makes for a nice and more leisurely «trip to market.»
