Vendor List: Coming soon!
Our Favorite Tomato Contest
Inspired by one of the Indiana Peony Festival's most beloved traditions—the Peony Stem Contest—our Favorite Tomato Contest celebrates the beauty and uniqueness of homegrown tomatoes.
Bring the tomato you're most proud of, whether it's perfectly symmetrical, delightfully quirky, giant, tiny, heirloom, striped, or any color in between. Entries will be judged solely on appearance, with our panel selecting the tomato they believe stands out from the rest. No taste testing required—just a fun celebration of the tomatoes that make us stop and stare.
The winner will receive a prize, plenty of bragging rights, and the title of this year's Favorite Tomato. Contest details and entry information will be announced closer to the event.
Help us create a community cookbook—one recipe at a time.
Bring a Tomato Recipe, Take a Tomato Recipe
Bring along a favorite tomato recipe to share, whether it's a treasured family recipe or a new seasonal favorite. Simply leave your recipe at our exchange station and browse recipes contributed by fellow market guests to take home.
From homemade pasta sauces and fresh salsa to tomato pie, bruschetta, soups, salads, and creative new dishes, it's a wonderful way to discover fresh inspiration while celebrating the versatility of one of summer's favorite ingredients. Afterward, shop the market for locally grown tomatoes and everything you need to recreate your newest recipe at home.
The fun doesn't stop at the market.
Bloody Mary Crawl
After exploring Seminary Park, head into downtown Noblesville for our Bloody Mary Crawl and Tomato Merchant Promotions. Participating restaurants, bars, and retailers will be offering tomato-themed specials, Bloody Mary creations, exclusive discounts, and unique shopping experiences throughout the day.
Whether you're sipping on a signature Bloody Mary, picking up a tomato-inspired gift, or discovering a special promotion at one of our downtown shops, it's the perfect way to continue your Tomato Market experience while supporting local businesses.
A full list of participating locations and promotions will be announced soon.
