Tomatoes Are Here!

We are happy to say that tomatoes are back on the stand here at Your Neighbor’s Garden! The tomatoes are grown by our farmer friend Norman Deiner. Norman has been growing tomatoes for Your Neighbor’s Garden for many years and his tomatoes are very popular among our customers as well as the restaurants we supply including  St. Elmo’s, Harry and Izzy’s, Recess, RBistro, and H20 Sushi. Stop by any time between 9am-6pm Monday through Saturday and pick up some tomatoes (and strawberries and squash and zucchini and lettuce and more!) or see us at any one of the Farmers’ Markets we attend.

Strawberry Jam is Back!

We are happy to announce that Your Neighbor’s Garden Strawberry Jam is back! Our strawberry jam is made with our own strawberries and is made by YNG staff person, Martha Latta. Each batch of strawberry jam is handmade and it is always made in small batches. This ensures a delicious and sweet jam which you can enjoy on toast, a peanut butter sandwich or even with graham crackers! Stop by and pick some strawberry jam up today because just like strawberry season, jam season won’t last forever! (But if you decide to stock up, jam is shelf stable for one year!)

Broad Ripple Announces Wednesday Market!

Exciting News Direct from Broad Ripple Farmers’ Market:

“The Broad Ripple Farmers Market is expanding to Wednesday evenings in the main parking lot of Broad Ripple Park, just a few blocks from our Saturday location at Broad Ripple Magnet High School.

Starting June 1st, those of you who have “Saturday morning ball games or other commitments that keep you from visiting us will be able to come out to the park mid-week from 5-8 p.m. and enjoy the Market experience.

The new Wednesday Market will be comprised of many of the same vendors who make up our Saturday Market, but there will be some new additions, as well. The first Market will launch with about 30 vendors, be family and dog-friendly, and staffed by the same volunteers who support the Saturday Market.

“We are very excited to make a mid-week Market available to the greater Broad Ripple community.” says Barbara Wilder, Market Master.  “We understand that not everyone is able to participate in our Saturday Market, and we hope by offering a midweek Market, more people will have access to the local produce, good food and good fun that the Saturday Market is known for.’”

The market begins June 1st and Your Neighbor’s Garden will be there with lots of great produce!

What’s Up at Your Neighbor’s Garden

Did you know know are picking lettuce from our garden every day now? We have several varities including red and green romaine, red and green butter head, red and green batavia and more. Stop by our home market to pick some up!

Many types of peppers in our field

Last week as the rain held off we were able to finally get lots of planting done! We planted hundreds of tomato plants, pepper plants, zucchini and cumber plants, basil plants and more lettuce!

Kale and potatoes in our field

Plants and seeds which were planted back in late March and early April like potatoes, kale, collards, peas and onions are all growing great! We have harvested a few spring onions and will begin harvesting many more over the next few weeks. In the next week or two you can also expect to begin seeing baby kale and collards on our stand!

Red ripe tomatoes from Norman Deiner will be available in a week or two, and ripe Indiana Strawberries will, too! Stay tuned for updates and be sure to subscribe to our newsletter to be the first to know what’s up at Your Neighbor’s Garden!
