Coffee Creek Farmers Market is recognized in 2nd year of contest
Indianapolis – Indiana Grown and the Indiana Farmers Market Community of Practice (INFMP) announced the winner of Indiana's Ultimate Farmers Market Challenge as Coffee Creek Farmers Market in Chesterton, Ind.
This was the second year for this contest and was a chance for customers across the state to vote for their favorite hometown farmers market to encourage local engagement and statewide recognition.
Coffee Creek Farmers Market is a weekday farmers market (Wednesdays from 3 to 7 p.m.). Its mission is to promote and develop a local sustainable food system.
“What's great about this challenge is that the farmers markets are nominated and then voted on by their community, and its wonderful to see so much community engagement," said Christina Ferroli, INFMP Program Coordinator. "We cannot thank community supporters enough for their votes and for supporting the farmers and food grown in their local communities."
"Coffee Creek is a wonderful farmers market and this recognition is well deserved," said Indiana Grown Director Caroline Patrick. "Farmers markets are an integral part of Indiana communities' economies. We were thrilled to have so many great nominations for farmers markets and it is great to see consumers supporting them."
