INDIANAPOLIS — The Julia Carson Transit Center in downtown Indianapolis is offering more than bus rides through October.
Each Wednesday, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., there's fresh produce for sale at the bus depot across from the City-County Building.
"Food in Transit" is a food stand that's a partnership between IndyGo and Growing Places Indy and made possible by a federal grant. There you can find fresh, affordable, and locally-grown produce, and you don't have to get off or on a bus to make a purchase.
The stand is outside, unless it rains, in which case it's moved inside the bus terminal. You can find a wide variety of fresh, local vegetables each week, with affordably priced bundles of $5 or $10. The vegetables will be pre-bundled and wrapped for safety and convenience.
Cash, SNAP, EBT, credit and debit are all accepted forms of payment, and Growing Places Indy offers a 50% discount on orders up to $10 for SNAP recipients.
