SEASONAL FARMS & MARKETS IN SULLIVAN COUNTY

Farm fresh is everyday life here.

Sullivan County is farm country, and the seasons set the table. Sweet corn comes in ahead of the September Corn Festival, a candy kitchen in Hymera makes peanut brittle when the holidays close in, and northwest of Sullivan there’s a vineyard with a tasting room at the end of the rows.

The Shave Shack, a mint green stand with a thatched roof and a surfboard flavor board, at the Farmer's Market corner in downtown Sullivan, Indiana.
FRESH FROM THE MARKET

Market days, a block off the square.

Where West Jackson meets South Court, a block off the Sullivan square, is the town’s Farmer’s Market corner, and The Shave Shack sells snow cones there from one in the afternoon. For market days and times, stop by the Tourism Commission office on South Main Street and ask what’s running this week.

FARM EXPERIENCES

Go to the source.

Meier Winery & Vinyard, northwest of Sullivan on State Road 63, does tastings and sells bottles to take home; call ahead for tasting-room hours. In Hymera, Cindy’s Candy Corner makes fudge from scratch in twenty-three flavors, with caramel corn, toffee, and holiday peanut brittle out of the same kitchen, Monday through Thursday, 9 to 5. And the festival calendar carries the season the rest of the way: the Corn Festival’s midway in September, trunk-or-treat nights in October, and a Victorian Christmas on the square in December.
