Walnut Springs is located near the small Greene County town of Bloomfield and is owned by M. Duane Smith and Leslie K. Smith. The Smiths were looking for a place to grow a few persimmon trees in their golden years when they purchased the farm back in 1997. They discovered the spring, and decided to do some water quality testing on it. They opened Walnut Grove Spring Water in 2005.
The clean and pure spring, which is estimated to be 15,000 years old, now provides around 100 gallons a day for the bottling. The spring could provide more water than that, but the Smiths prefer to draw only a portion of what could be provided by the spring to help preserve the source.
The water isn't the only thing special, the bottles help add a special touch. The bottles are real glass and have a flip top metal cap, which is quite unique. A true Indiana business this is as the bottles, labels and workers are all acquired locally.
Emmy attendees are in for a special treat, as the company is offering a free 6-month supply (a case of water a month) in their homes, in addition to the bottle in the bag.
Being invited to be in the official Emmy award gift bags is icing on the cake for this wonderful local business. They just opened a new bottling and warehouse in June and they have expansion plans to offer the bottled water in more areas across the country. The Emmy exposure will be wonderful to expose the water to a nationwide audience. Since they are the exclusive bottled water supplier for the event, they're a good chance some of the big stars will be drinking the water during the actual Emmy event.
For those of you who live near the spring, it is offered in several local restaurants and grocery locations. 5-gallon water delivery is also available. Those of you in far away, nowhere near Indiana locations, you can order your water online. On their website walnutgrovespring.com, its available for purchase by the case or in the special tulip Gift box. Waterconnoisseur can log onto finewaters.com to see this bottled water featured among many other fine waters. You can read a little history on the water, the company and view a water analysis.
Be sure to watch the Emmy's and keep your eye out for this wonderful Indiana product.
