Meet our Farmers
The farmers who are listed on this represent a very special group of producers. They are people who believe that the internet is a great way to reach consumers and to provide direct access to products from the farm. All the producers on this site are in Indiana. They represent a wide variety of operations from all areas of the state. Some of the farmers are small and specialize in a few products, while others are larger and offer many different types of products. One thing they all have in common is their dedication to producing a great product for you and to give you the best service.
Most of the farming operations are family-run farms with every member of
the family involved in some aspect of production. Many operations are
multi-generational with mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers from
several generations working together. Family pride plays a large role in
these farms.
The variety of products you will find on this site is simply astounding. Not only will you find some of the best tasting fruits and vegetables, but also many types of beef and pork. You can also find some specialty products like farm raised buffalo.
In addition to food items, you can buy unique craft products, candles, gift baskets, and many more items made by Hoosier producers in their own homes.
This site allows you to purchase products directly from farmers but, in addition, many producers sell their products at farmers' markets around the state. Check the farmers' market listing for a list of markets around the state along with their days of operation.
Quality is what you will find in all the products offered by our producers. In most cases, the products have been planted, picked, and packed by the people from whom you are buying. This kind of personal connection has been lost in today's modern grocery store.
Many of the farmer's listings have information about their families and
their operations. Please read the information to learn more about the
producers of Indiana Farm Direct.
