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!
Sunshine On My Shoulders
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high…

Well…have we finally broken through to some spring like weather?? Yesterday was super amazing, and it was perfect for working, outside, clearing out the winter, and beautifying for spring/summer!
With all of this spring like weather, don’t forget that it give us asparagus season!! And, that season is a very short one, so you will want to take advantage of it, while it is with us!!
Today is Tuesday, the sun is shining, and it’s the perfect moment to work on getting your orders in for the week!!
Go ahead…just try not to be happy with this morning’s song implant…
Thank you, always, for supporting this ongoing market! It’s a pleasure to always serve you, our loyal customers!
XOXO,
