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!

Hey there Mr. Blue, we’re so pleased to be with you…
Look around see what you do…
Everybody smiles at you…

So, another totally amazing day!! I had the day free of any obligations or responsibility so I spent it, outside, giving some much needed love to my flower beds!! It was so nice to be in the breeze, the sunshine, the blue skies. Even weeding was pleasant. I flipped on the outside stereo and went about my day.
I did want to remind you that while I hope you have been able to take advantage of this lovely weather, I hope you have had time to place your market orders!! You have until 10pm, this evening, to get it all together!!
Placing your weekly order will make this sunshine day even brighter for you!!
Peace and Love,
