Logansport Farmer’s Market
The Cass County Community Foundation is currently working on a grant to Lilly Endowment to fund a larger project which includes the following three objectives:
- Erecting a 16,000 sq ft open-air multi-use facility located at the corner of 4th and Market Streets in Downtown Logansport as a permanent home for the Logansport Farmer’s Market. The enhanced and permanent Logansport Farmers Market location will be a lively, safe place that attracts a diverse range of people and activities. It will be the heart and soul of Downtown Logansport
- Constructing an incubator kitchen in a building adjacent to the multi-use community structure.This location will allow vendors to store and/or create products and provide space for entrepreneurs to make food for selling at the Logansport Farmers Market or elsewhere. The 4,000-square-foot incubator kitchen will develop successful local and regional entrepreneurs and preserve culinary traditions held by many of our residents.
- Acquiring land within the city limits that will be available to local growers for gardening and food production.substantial interest in having access to plots of land to grow fruits and vegetables for personal consumption and to sell at the market.
A special community meeting for residents who are interested in producing their own food products to sell and market and/or community garden space to grow fruits and vegetables will be held at the CCCF Office, 729 E. Market Street on Tuesday, August 20, 2024, at 5:30 p.m.
The Foundation, through this meeting, is seeking input and ideas from residents who are interested in growing their own food on a provided plot, as well as residents who have a food item they would like to produce and sell but lack the commercial, safe space to make their product.
