Mandy from Schacht Family Farm is one of the people I trust most at the Broad Ripple Farmers Market. She raises beef, chicken, and pork using true regenerative farming practices, the kind that actually restore the land instead of stripping it. Her cattle graze in patterns that stimulate microbial activity in the soil, her chickens live outdoors where they can scratch, forage, and soak up sunlight, and there’s absolutely zero confinement or shortcuts anywhere in her operation.

You can taste the difference in every cut.

The meat is nutrient‑dense, full of real flavor, and raised with the kind of integrity that’s getting harder to find. Mandy feeds her own family this way, and I’m grateful she helps feed mine too!!

There’s something magical about watching real sourdough being made the way it was meant to be… slow, intentional, and deeply connected to the land. At the Broad Ripple Farmers Market, I spent time with Jason Michael Thomas, a baker who’s reviving the old‑world craft of 100% wild‑yeast sourdough using only organic, locally milled whole‑grain flour. No bleached or bromated flour, no pesticides, no shortcuts. Just time, skill, and ingredients your body actually recognizes.

His loaves are dense, rich, and unbelievably nourishing, honestly, half a meal on their own. This is food as medicine in its purest, most delicious form.

If you haven’t tried his bread yet, you’re missing out on something truly special!!

The Broad Ripple Farmers Market has one of my favorite origin stories. It started in Ross’s backyard with just a handful of neighbors who believed in local food and community. Today it welcomes more than 100,000 people every summer and has become one of the most loved markets in Indiana.

I’ve watched it grow, change, and stay true to its roots. This place has shaped how I shop, how I eat, and how I connect with the people who grow my food. From a backyard gathering to a community landmark. That’s the kind of history worth celebrating!!

Mkono Farm is one of those vendors I look forward to visiting every single week. Their lamb and pork come from heritage breeds raised with real regenerative care, and you can feel the difference the moment you start cooking. Everything is completely pasture‑raised, fed non‑GMO grains, and naturally higher in vitamin E, vitamin D, and omega‑3s. Her kunekune pigs are perfect for permaculture systems, and the Navajo Churro sheep are known for incredibly lean, flavorful meat and beautiful fiber.

As I often remind patients, yes, this kind of meat costs more than the grocery store, but it’s so nutrient‑dense that you genuinely don’t need as much. Quality changes everything!

Eagle Creek Apiary is one of my favorite stops for truly raw, unpasteurized honey. They harvest throughout the season, so every jar captures a different mix of pollens, nutrients, and immune‑supportive compounds. It’s the kind of honey that actually tastes like where it came from. I love it for its natural allergy‑reducing benefits too!

Bee pollen and raw honey are such underrated tools for immune health, and the flavor is on a completely different level from anything processed. We carry a variety of Eagle Creek Apiary products right inside Dr. Logan’s Natural Pharmacy, so come by and pick up some delicious local honey for your home.

Freedom Valley Farm is one of those vendors that makes winter at the Broad Ripple Farmers Market truly worth traveling for. They grow mushrooms and vegetables using organic practices in greenhouses and high tunnels, which means they’re harvesting all four seasons, even when everything outside is frozen solid… Their mushroom lineup is always beautiful to look at: shiitake, blue oyster, lion’s mane, black pearl king oyster, and chestnut mushrooms that cook up perfectly every time.

Then there are the winter carrots! They’re sweet, mineral‑rich, and taste better than anything you’d find in a store. Cold weather converts the starches into natural sugars, so these carrots end up being some of the best you’ll ever try. It still amazes me that you can find fresh, local produce in the dead of winter, but Freedom Valley makes it happen week after week.

Shopping local isn’t just about great ingredients. It’s about supporting the farmers who care about the soil, the animals, and the people they feed. When you buy from your community, you keep your dollars close to home and you bring home food that’s fresher, richer, and grown with intention.

Local food nourishes more than your body... It strengthens the place you live!

I’ve been buying fish from Wild Alaska Salmon & Seafood for years, and their ground salmon has basically become one of my kitchen staples. It comes straight from small family fisheries in Alaska, sustainably caught and handled with the kind of care you can actually taste. It’s naturally rich in collagen, omega‑3s, and healthy fats, and it cooks in a way that makes quick meals feel a little more special.

It can be turned into salmon burgers, tacos, meatballs, or even a salmon meatloaf. It’s great tossed into salads or swapped anywhere you’d normally use ground beef. Clean sourcing plus real flavor is a combination that you can’t pass up!

We are living shorter lives than our parents.
And it’s not because we don’t care about our health.
It’s because we’ve been taught the wrong things about food.

I’ve been a physician for 31 years.
I’ve studied nutrition for over 40.
And what I’ve seen in my practice is simple:
Nutrition is the foundation of health… and the foundation has cracked.

How did we get here?
A shift in food policy.
A shift in farming.
A shift in what we were told to put on our plates.
More grains.
More seed oils.
More processed foods.
Less real food.
Less nutrients.
Less health.

Since the 1980s, diabetes has increased 400%.
Fatty liver disease is now showing up in kids.
Chronic disease is the norm, not the exception.

But here’s the part most people never hear:
You can change your health trajectory with simple, actionable steps.

Flip the food pyramid.
Eat real food.

I call it the Plant Heavy Paleo Diet
Prioritize vegetables + quality proteins.
Choose nutrient‑dense meats.
Avoid seed oils.
Cut high fructose corn syrup.
Read your labels.
Know where your food comes from.

Small changes → big impact.
Your body is waiting for you to give it what it actually needs.

If you want a healthier tomorrow, it starts with what’s on your plate today.
Watch the video to understand the “why”…
And walk away with the “how.”
