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!
Bad Moon Rising
Don’t go ‘round tonight
It’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise…
(Bad Moon Rising-CCR)
Have you gazed out your windows, this morning? Have you seen the brilliance of the moon? Nothing makes me more energized than to feel the loveliness of the moon…
And, after you gaze at the moon, make your way to the market because we close for the week, in one hour!!
Be bright, be brilliant, be the moon…
XOXO,
