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!
Welcome Back!!
We now give a heart felt welcome back to the gang at End Of The Road Farms!!! When we last saw them, they had just had baby Mary, they were heading into winter, and they had big plans for the upcoming season!!
And so…now they are back!! With their first offerings of the season…take advantage, make your orders, and just like with all seasonal produce, it won’t be around for long!!
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…
