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!
Ain't No Man
There ain’t nobody here,
Who can cause me pain or raise my fear, ‘cause I got only love to share…
If you’re looking for truth I’m proof you’ll find it there…
(Avett Brothers-Ain’t No Man)
Just like our little local market of love…it’s all I’ve got to share…
And, a HUGE dose of love to our customers, our vendors, and the popularity of our new Vendor Night At The Market!!
I am now opening the market, once again, and I urge you to get in on the fun, on the love, and look at all we have to offer!!
If you head to our Facebook page, you will see pictures of the past few weeks with our market pick up items, our fun, and our Vendor Night At The Market!!
All I have is love to share, and all this little local market has to share is it’s love…
Why not make it an all around love fest, this week…go, love, order…
XOXO,
