Sometimes, you go into a store knowing what you need. Other times, it’s best to let your senses guide you to the goodness that will ultimately fill your cart, especially when you stop in at Wilson Farm Market in Arcadia.
An astounding amount of products
Take the leisurely route during your first visit — the aisle dedicated to jams and jellies, a selection of 125
kinds of cheese, and a growing line of patrons patiently waiting for Wilson’s infamous double-breaded fried chicken can overwhelm even the expert-level shopper.
Satisfy your sweet tooth at the market’s bakery, whose Amish fry pies are just the right size for snacking. Whether you’re craving a delicate Angel Food cake, nostalgic candies, a rich slice of fudge, or snickerdoodle cookies, you will find it at Wilson Farm Market. Stock up on tender breads and the popular pretzel bread, made with the same recipe used to create the soft pretzels Wilson Farm Market sells at the Indiana State Fair.
Offering obscure items
While the market keeps plenty of standbys in stock, they’re keen to deliver old favorites and source uncommon products for their customers.
“We carry many items that are hard to find, like scrapple and mac and cheese loaf,” shared Steve Wilson. “We have some very obscure cheeses like morel and leek, and coffee espresso. We also go out of our way to help customers find items that we may not normally stock. Recently, we have had customers looking for organic wheat berries and have been able to source them for special order.”
While you wait in line for your order of fried chicken, scan the menu for delicacies like livers, gizzards, and mushrooms — all available most days. The team at the market also fries tenderloin and fish sandwiches to order, making the market a must for your next Hamilton County lunch. In addition to the Arcadia location, you can find them at the Noblesville and Binford Farmers Markets during the season.
