Wild Pansy Farm is excited to announce the launch of 'Simply Indiana', a ready-to-eat food line made by diversified, small-scale vegetable growers like you. In this, our first year, we are prioritizing produce purchases from farmers throughout Southern Indiana. We will use your veggies in salsas, dips, sauces, and soups that will be sold to institutions and select retail locations, opening up opportunities for us all to grow our farms while feeding our communities.

Simply Indiana is buying all kinds of produce in bushel and 20-pound quantities to produce weekly batches of ready-to-eat products. If you are growing anything from the below list, we want to hear from you! 

Broccoli
Garlic
Peppers
Cabbage
Greens
Snap beans
Cauliflower
Herbs (especially fennel)
Squash
Celery
Leeks
Tomatoes
Corn
Onions
​Tomatillos

We are also buying many other vegetables, so give us a call if you want to sell a variety not listed above.

Starting in June, we will be arranging weekly or bi-weekly pickups in your community. If you are interested in bulk produce sales, please reach out soon and we can begin arranging an order from your farm together.
