Floating farmers market comes to Health District

The Indy Health District is launching a Floating Farmers Market to bring nutritious food options to underserved neighborhoods, starting May 30 at 21st and Capitol. The Floating Farmers Market will rotate among five neighborhoods within the Indy Health District, which currently lacks grocery stores. This initiative aims to improve access to healthy food, education and mental health resources. The Indy Health District covers an area between IU Methodist Hospital and Crown Hill Cemetery, encompassing over 1,500 acres. Residents in this area have a life expectancy in their mid-60s, significantly lower than nearby Hamilton County. The Floating Farmers Market represents a significant step towards addressing food deserts in the Indy Health District, with hopes of eventually establishing permanent grocery stores in the area.
