Indianapolis Fresh Thyme Farmers Market customers can now shop for groceries online and have them delivered to their door through Amazon Prime Now.

According to a news release, the service promises "superfast delivery" from Fresh Thyme in one or two hours.

Prime members in Avon, Speedway, Carmel, Broad Ripple, Downtown and other areas can take advantage of the service, officials said. One-hour delivery is $7.99, and two-hour delivery is free.

Prime Now is available to customers from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week in the Indianapolis area.

“Fresh Thyme offers an impressive variety of groceries for Prime members from organic produce to gluten-free products, and fresh treats from local artisan bakeries,” Simoina Vasen, director of Prime Now, said in a statement announcing the service.

Prime Now is available in 30 cities in the U.S. and delivers from local grocery stores, restaurants, alcohol stores, beauty stores and pet care stores and continues to expand rapidly. Prime members can download the Prime Now app, available on iOS and Android devices, or visit primenow.com to place orders and track the status of their delivery in real time.

“Amazon Prime Now is a perfect fit for Fresh Thyme to be able to extend this convenience to those who may not be able to shop with us as often as they’d like,” Fresh Thyme CEO Chris Sherrell said in the statement. “At the core of both our brands is an emphasis on quality, convenience and value, and this partnership is a huge step in better serving our communities.”

Green Bean Delivery and Instacart are among other grocery delivery services in the Indianapolis area.
