The Indy Health District (IHD) is leading a push to help Indianapolis residents live longer, with life expectancy for residents within the district's 1,500-acre footprint set to be more than a decade earlier than those living just miles away. The return of the IHD Floating Farmers Market is part of a larger effort to bridge the gap. The market, launched by Danita Hoskin, CEO and market manager of Harvest 2 Home Indy, serves fresh produce, free health screenings, and community resources to five north side neighborhoods without a single grocery store between them since 2015. The initiative is supported by IU Health, Ivy Tech Community College, the Children's Museum of Indianapolis, the IU School of Medicine and Citizens Energy Group. The IHD's director of engagement, Reginald Wesley, said the market model is designed around "quick wins" that the community can see.
