Highlight home delivery of milk, cheese and more during the holidays

The American Dairy Association Indiana (ADAI) represents almost 700 dairy farms across Indiana which are home to more than 174,000 dairy cattle.
“In this season of giving, we are grateful to be able to give a greater platform for Hoosier dairy farmers,” said Nick Carter, Market Wagon CEO and co-founder. “eCommerce and last-mile delivery are not easy but by working together we can help farmers thrive by connecting them to local customers who delight in all the delicious Hoosier dairy options that are available.
The partnership of the ADAI and Market Wagon puts resources into a promotional effort to highlight the availability of home delivery directly from Indiana dairy farms to Hoosiers all over the state. It also underlines the importance of supporting local food from dairy farmers and other food producers across Indiana.
“There’s no better time to eat local than during the holiday season, and our almost 700 Indiana dairy farm families are happy to provide the best quality products for your table,” said Jenni Browning, ADAI CEO. “Whether it’s milk, cheese, yogurt or your favorite bowl of ice cream, Hoosiers don’t have to go far for a very nutritious and delicious selection.”
Market Wagon believes by providing exceptional choice and service, people can know exactly where their food comes from—no shipping or post offices required! In addition to dairy products, the online store contains everything you would expect to find at a physical farmers market – local farm-fresh eggs, meat, produce, baked goods, and more.
