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!
Take It Easy!

Take it easy, take it easy
Don’t let the sound of your own wheels
Make you crazy…(Take It Easy-The Eagles)
It’s what we want for you…to just take it easy, let us do all of the work, ease your mind…all you have to do is order from our little local market!
This is the time of year that gets super busy and super crazy! You want to ease into the months of summer but first you have to pass GO at lightening speed! End of the year school obligations, graduations, sports, figuring out summer plans, transitioning to kids being home…just crazy times!!
You worry about all of that while we worry about taking care of you! Sneak off, take a bit of time, all to yourself, start your shopping for the week, make your selections, and then, voila! We have it all ready for you on Thursday! You shopped, you did it locally, you did it with ease…
Because, in the whole scheme of things, don’t you deserve to take it easy?
Today is Tuesday, the market will close, tonight, at 8pm. We can only make it easy on you if you let us:)
Peace and Love,
Cosmic Pam
