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!
A Thanksgiving Love Fest!
So, yeah…if you are like me, you are just as amazed that it is almost Thanksgiving Day! What?? Wait…what???
Yes…Thanksgiving is fast approaching!! Remember that our market can fill all of your Thanksgiving needs!!
And, how easy it is to just sit at your computer, or on your phone, and start to order from your list. You can do it!! This is the last week we will be open before the holiday. No market on Thanksgiving day, and then after that, we move on to Christmas…
So, think about what we can do for it…we offer it all!! Show your family how much you love them by shopping from our little local market of love…
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…
