Trader's Point Creamery



Eat your meal or devour your ice cream outdoor
on the deck.

 Possibly one of the best little gems in Indianapolis is Trader’s Point Creamery.  The creamery is located in Zionsville and boasts of its organic approach to eating well.    All dairy products produced at the creamery are created using milk from 100% grassfed cattle and are free of synthetic hormones.  While the creamery is most well known for its amazing ice cream, they also produce a variety of milks, yogurts, and cheeses.   If you visit the creamery be sure to stop in for a relaxing lunch, dinner, or even the weekly farmers markets.  Summer farmer's markets are held on Fridays from 4-8 pm and host a variety of venders from the local community.  Actually, during the farmer's market you can dine outside on the deck.  What a great way to grab a glass of vino and relax after a busy week!

 

The Loft Eatery

The Loft is located inside one of the truly unique bars and offer dinner, lunch, and Sunday brunch menus.  As with their dairy products, all dishes are prepared using  organic ingredients.  Those of you like me, who cannot consume gluten, be sure to talk to your waiter, the manager, or a chef about gluten free options.  While the restaurants offers salads and eggs, they do not specify gluten free options or substitutes.  All of the staff is very knowledgeable about the ingredients and are more than willing to help.  But, all of the ice cream flavors are GLUTEN FREE! :)  The creamery is actually thinking of adding that information onto the label of the ice cream.  


One of my favorite products the creamery offers is their pourable yogurt.  Since stumbling upon it a few months ago, I have not used any other yogurt.  Although I choose to visit the creamery in order to pick up my yogurt, you can find it at a variety of different stores around the city.  Actually, you can even select the yogurt as an item through the Green B.E.A.N organic produce and natural grocery delivery program.  (I will post later on this…love it!)  I mix this yogurt with kefir daily in order to get my daily dose of prebiotics and probiotics.  One of the natural benefits of wheat are prebiotics necessary for digestion, and I have found this yogurt mixture to be a great alternative!  You can pour it over fruit, mix it in a smoothie, or top it off with some gluten-free granola.  Personally, I am a huge smoothy fan.  The combination of Trader's Point Creamery yogurt, knifer, ripe banana, and frozen strawberries or blueberries blended together is the perfect way to start the day.  Yummy!
