Cass-Hankins Greenhouse & Orchard, LLC
On a gravel drive in Crawfordsville, Indiana, Cass-Hankins Greenhouse & Orchard is where you find serious apples and serious honey in the same friendly booth. This family-run stand jams the season with apples, pears, cider, squash and more, all proudly local. The honey, tucked among the produce, is a quiet reminder that Indiana beekeeping is alive and well here. The owner is clearly invested in what he stocks, knowing which apple varieties hold up through winter and which peppers pair with a good squash. The farm stand also carries seasonal baked goods now and then, a small window into the farm’s craft. You can pay by card, but cash is handy when you catch them outside card hours. Open through harvest season and into mid-November, the Crawfordsville stand welcomes visitors who want a tangible taste of Indiana farming. When you want a simple stop that feels like a day at the market, Crawfordsville's stand is the kind of place you remember.
