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!
A Nice Surprise!
The market is open until tomorrow morning at 8am!!
And…drumroll…the Stadlers have added their Paw Paws!!! The most delicate, most delicious fruit!!!
BUT…this may be the only week, because they are such a limited, seasonal delight!!! Get them, now!!! Don’t hesitate, get your orders in!!
Add an order of raspberries, from Champaign Berry Farm, to go with!!
Perfect harmony…
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
