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!

Wow! We have a lot of new customers to meet this week! Welcome new friends and neighbors! While the market is now closed until late Thanksgiving day, we will have market pickup this Thursday and then take a week off for the celebration of all things we are thankful for. I am thankful right now for a wonderful group of people known as the Virtual Market family who is getting bigger every day! Welcome friends…old and new! See you this Thursday if you ordered something and be sure to bring your market bags with you to be as green as possible! Thank you everyone!
