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!
Good Day, Sunshine!
Good day sunshine…
Good day sunshine…
Good day sunshine…
I need to laugh, and when the sun is out…
I’ve got something I can laugh about…
I feel good, in a special way…
I’m in love and it’s a sunny day…
(Beatles – Good Day Sunshine)
Well, what a lovely, sun filled, warm kind of day!! The kind of day when your soul soars, your mood lifts, and you are right back to the season that starts it all…
It’s Sunday, it was a super groovy day to be out and about and doing whatever it is that makes you happy on these kinds of days!
Now that you are calming down for the evening, thinking ahead to the week, planning your lists of local needs from this little local market of love, go ahead and get your orders in. Do your ordering, now, forget about it until market pick up on Thursday, and watch how easy your week suddenly becomes!!
We have local goodness, affordable prices, nutrition packed real food, seasonal products that are beginning to hit the market, and the happiness that you get from supporting your local market, farmers, growers, producers…
Go ahead…make the day even more perfect. Order from our market!
Peace and Love,
