OUR FRIENDS
Bridges takes pride in serving fresh and organic products from the surrounding local communities.
The DePauw University Campus Farm
DePauw students produce fresh, organic vegetables for the University and community partners.
DePauw students produce fresh, organic vegetables for the University and community partners. In the Spring of 2019, the University launched the Ullem Campus Farm and Center for Sustainability, significantly expanding the acreage of the farm and providing a beautiful building for educational programming surrounding sustainability and agriculture. Nearly 6,000 pounds of fresh, sustainably-grown food is harvested from the campus farm each season.
Smoking Goose Dorman Street Meatery
All Smoking Goose recipes begin on the farm.
Combining old world craft and new world flavors, Smoking Goose handcrafts over 40 varieties of slow cured and smoked meats, salami and sausages. Partnering with small family farms, seam butchering, hand tying, and curing without compound nitrates takes more time and more skill, but Smoking Goose knows there’s no shortcut to this level of quality and flavor.
Zaring's Fresh Produce
Zaring's Fresh Produce was started in the mid-1980s and has grown to five acres of gardens that produce a wide variety of delicious fresh produce. You can find Zaring's Produce at the Greencastle Farmer’s Market.
Fischer Farms
In 2004, Fischer Farms started selling their beef directly to restaurants and individuals to create a long term viable farm that raises natural beef for chefs to have access to a consistent, quality product. Fischer Farms is the main source for beef, eggs, and pork products at Bridges.
