To grow and diversify their businesses, Indiana farmers need support to supply local food to larger, regional buyers. FARMWISE Indiana connects institutional, wholesale buyers to Hoosier farm and food producers, bringing local food to local plates.
About 3 out of 4 surveyed chefs and food service directors report purchasing local food and say they value the freshness, taste, and quality of local. Moreover, these buyers are motivated to support their local economy with the dollars they use to purchase food.
