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!
Good evening everyone!

Here is hoping we see each and every one of you this week as we celebrate the annual return to school! Please watch for those big yellow rolling things called buses and the kids on foot or bicycles. What a fun time of year with new shoes and excitement! Have fun as we all remember how it felt to be nervous for newness and excited to meet new and old friends! Remember the market though and please share us with a friend!
