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!
What a night!

Oh what a night! Can you just say perfection? I can’t thank those loyal volunteers Pam and Charlene enough for all the work to make a perfect market tonight! Thanks ladies! Due to the holiday, we won’t be open this week but we will be missing each of you and looking forward til we get together again! Buy something local over our break and please support a restaurant that supports local. Until next time!
