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!
It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year!
And, the weeks are flying by, before the market closes up for it’s holiday break!!
We will be operating the market until the Thursday pick up on December 21st, and then we shut down for two weeks!
That means, you need to get busy with your market orders so you can be stocked up on the local goods, gifts, and local love!
The market is now open, once again, for your ordering pleasure…
FYI, I am off the market, until after the new year. I’m catering, and hosting my own annual Christmas party, and then my Florida family will be in town with my little grandson, for 10 days!! So, I will off enjoying everything!!
XOXO,
