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!
Friday On My Mind
Monday morning feels so bad…Everybody seems to nag me…Comin’ Tuesday I’ll feel better…
(Easybeats – Friday On My Mind)
Yes, it IS Monday morning! Yes, I am feeling just as crazy as you all are feeling!! There is nothing more jarring than to try to just ease out of the weekend of bliss only to have to slam into a Monday morning at lightening speed. Hello…it’s the dawn of a new week.
We can make it all a bit easier for you…we can do all of the work for you! Once you get settled into the crazy day, take a bit of time, make a quick list, go to our market site, and order away!! As soon as we see your orders come through, our work begins and your work has ended. It’s that easy!
We bring you local, we bring you nutrition, we bring you seasonal. We want to take a bit of stress out of your life!
Go dream of Friday while we make your Monday a bit easier!
A few things to brighten the week…
A reminder about the upcoming farm tour that I posted about at End Of The Road Farms!! Check the date, June 21, and try to get an RSVP back to me so that I can let the Ruff’s know how many to expect! What a fun day!!
Once again, there will be a lucky winner in the Market Love playlist drawing!! All customers who order for the week will get their names in the drawing!!
I will be drawing another Cosmic Coupon Of Love winner, this week! All Cosmic customers will be entered into the drawing!!
If you need your asparagus fix, get your orders in!!! The season will wrap up, soon, and this is the best asparagus, ever!!
Get on with your day and your week…we look forward to your orders!!
Peace and Love,
Cosmic Pam
