The Weblog
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!
Let The Games Begin!
You know I am a huge March Madness girl!! You know my team is Kentucky, followed by North Carolina!! I have lived in both states, and both teams are near and dear to my heart. BUT, having gone to college in Kentucky, I always hope that the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home…
And, also, the games must begin with this market opening for the week!! Get in, look at the market site, make your orders, and watch the games, all at the same time…
Start the madness…throw us some orders!!
XOXO,
