Fall Produce Harvest Opens to Residents at the AgriPark
Fishers, IN · August 31, 2026
Crews cleared the road cones early this morning after a busy late-summer weekend. With September arriving tomorrow, the pace across neighborhood trails and municipal desks is already picking up.
The Lead
The 33-acre Fishers AgriPark opens its gates for the late-summer public harvest this week, welcoming residents to gather fresh seasonal produce directly from the fields at no cost. Following an active growing season, farm staff reported strong yields across rows of sweet corn, bell peppers, tomatoes, squash, and leafy greens.
The community farm initiative, located along 113th Street, provides free access to fresh vegetables while offering hands-on agricultural education to local families and school groups. Harvest limits remain in effect per household to ensure equitable access throughout the community before surplus produce goes to local food pantries. Visitors can drop by during open farm hours Tuesday through Saturday, with staff recommending sturdy shoes and personal gathering baskets for the fields.

Spotlight & Story
- The Historic Eller Bridge
- Before a fire destroyed it in 1957, this covered wooden span carried wagons and early automobiles across the White River at Eller Road. Its loss permanently reshaped Delaware Township’s western boundary and redirected traffic northward toward modern crossings.
