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!
Kennedy Farms Announcement
So, I hope you will not get irritated with the emails, today, but this is the best way to get news to the masses…
I just got a text from Kennedy Farms, and they are out in the country, totally iced in. They will not be making their market delivery until tomorrow!!
I want customers who have their items purchased to be aware, in case you want to adjust your pick up day!!
