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!
Market's open!

Thanks to Pam, Charlene and Mark for a great market tonight! We couldn’t do it without such great help guys! We love you!
Also tonight, we had a visitor taking photos for an upcoming story in Our Ohio, Farm Bureau’s magazine. We’ll tell you when we see it but should be a fun story! Can’t wait!
If you haven’t shared our market with a friend, neighbor, boss, babysitter, dog walker, hairstylist…ok, you get my point, please do! The more customers who know about us, the more our vendors will be happy with their sales and will keep producing such great items. Please spread the word for us!
