Statehouse Market Week 16: The post-Labor Day homestretch begins!

posted by SPD Communications on August 31, 2018 Statehouse Market Week 16

Labor Day weekend is traditionally seen as the unofficial end of summer.

Gone are the barbecues and pool parties, and in their place Hoosiers ready for sweatshirt weather, football and pumpkin spice-flavored everything.

Well, according to our calendars, there are five — count ’em — FIVE Statehouse Markets remaining in 2018. And since the farmer’s market on Robert D. Orr Plaza is pretty much synonymous with the warm rays of summer in Indy, we think there’s still plenty of fun in the sun left this year.

We’re so confident, in fact, that we might even (gasp!) wear white clothing after Labor Day!

Yes, it’s a potential fashion faux pas, but that’s just how daring we can be — at least when it comes to choosing pants in September.

And why not?

After all, that’s the sort of trend-bucking, devil-may-care Hoosier spirit you’ll see each Thursday at the market as some of the area’s top farmers, artisans, entrepreneurs and mobile restaurant maestros gather for an event the smells of which alone simply scream “summer.”

So keep the shades handy and the warm weather wardrobe at the ready. Summer’s far from over, and we hope you’ll enjoy these last few Market Days with us – rain or shine, summer weather or fall-like chilly temperatures.

As always, we’ll meet you for lunch on the plaza between 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.

We’ll see you Thursday! Until then, keep looking on the sunny side of life and check out the Sept. 6 lineup below.
