INDIANAPOLIS — Fresh Thyme Farmers Market will be celebrating two grand openings in northern Indianapolis on Thursday, September 25. The two stores will be located at 4225 E. 82nd Street and 2342 W. 86th Street. Fresh Thyme grand openings are filled with fun activities, food sampling and family entertainment. At recent grand openings residents have begun arriving the night before to ensure they are one of the first 250 people in line.
The first 250 people through the doors at each location will receive a reusable grocery bag filled with $50 worth of healthy and organic groceries. Doors open at 7 a.m. with the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce on hand for the ribbon cutting ceremonies and community partners check presentations at 6:45 a.m.
