The local foods movement is alive and well in Champaign County! Here are some updates on other projects while we finalize our virtual market:
Local Producers Map:
Our local producers map is ready for publication and you will soon be able to find it on gochampaign.com. Copies will be distributed around the community, in the local telephone book, and other “hangouts”. The guide lists the location and contact information for nearly 50 local producers within our county. The map was a project of the Local Food Council and printed with the help of some local sponsors including the Monument Square District, Champaign Bank, the Community Improvement Corporation, the Chamber of Commerce, the Farm Bureau and others. It is a great start to finding a local source for Champaign County’s finest!
Special day to all!

Happy Inauguration Weekend! This week’s specials are awesome! Oakview Farm Fresh Meats are offering a super deal on smoked bone-in ham in one or two slice packages. Get your scalloped potatoes ready to sideline with it!
A second deal also goes out to our bread-heads… Cosmic Charlie’s Whole Wheat Apple is a super deal at only $3! If you have yet to partake in her groovy offerings, Pam will not disappoint! Fresh is best and it certainly is that! Yummo!
Have a great week!
