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!
A friendly reminder!

Please remember to pick your order up tonight from 4:30-6:30 at the Y so our wonderful volunteers do not have to track you down! We have to jump through a lot if hoops to do that and at our age, it just isn’t pretty. First, the warm-up suit doesn’t fit and sometimes the hoops even get stuck around my middle…geesh, just please pick up your orders!
