At Tyner Pond Farm, we’re thrilled to be featured in the latest statewide marketing promotion by Indiana Grown, a program that connects local farmers like us with consumers across the state. Being showcased alongside other dedicated local food producers is not only an honor but a strong endorsement of our sustainable farming methods. It highlights the importance of supporting local agriculture as a way to build a healthier and more resilient food system.

Why Indiana Grown Matters

Indiana Grown is a program that supports Hoosier farmers by promoting local products to a wider audience, helping consumers make the connection between where their food comes from and the value of buying it locally. When you purchase from an Indiana Grown farm, you’re not just getting food—you’re supporting a farming system that prioritizes quality, transparency, and the local economy.

This campaign is a reminder that choosing to shop directly from local producers is a powerful decision. It cuts out the middleman, allowing farmers to offer better pricing, while giving consumers access to fresh, nutrient-dense foods that are grown and raised right here in Indiana. For Tyner Pond Farm, it’s a way to offer pasture-raised beef that’s raised using regenerative practices designed to restore the land, preserve resources, and provide healthier food for you and your family.

Avoid the Grocery Store—Choose Local

One of the main messages behind the Indiana Grown promotion is the value of buying direct from local farms. The convenience of a grocery store is undeniable, but what are we giving up in exchange? More often than not, grocery store products come from industrial farms, where efficiency and profits are prioritized over quality, animal welfare, and sustainability.

Shopping locally not only gives you higher-quality food but also fosters a direct relationship with the farmer. This means you know exactly where your food comes from, how it was raised, and how it got to your plate. At Tyner Pond Farm, we’re happy to offer this transparency. Our grass-fed beef and pasture-raised chickens are moved daily across our pastures, ensuring a natural and nutrient-rich diet that translates into healthier food for you.

A Call to Action: Support Your Local Farmers

We’re proud to be part of the Indiana Grown program, and we believe it’s a meaningful step toward building a more sustainable and secure food system. Our methods are built on the foundation of regenerative agriculture, where every decision we make supports not just the health of our animals, but the land we depend on and the community we serve.

This campaign encourages you to think beyond the convenience of the grocery store and consider the broader impact of your food choices. When you buy from local farmers, you’re investing in a food system that values quality, sustainability, and transparency. Whether it’s visiting your local farmer’s market or ordering directly from Tyner Pond Farm, each purchase you make helps keep local farms like ours thriving.

So the next time you’re considering what to put on your plate, we hope you’ll remember that Local is the Label, and by choosing local, you’re choosing food that’s better for your family, the environment, and our shared future.

Thank you for supporting local farms and making a difference, one meal at a time.
