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!
Ain't No Sunshine
So, this week found me with one illness, only to find me getting better, then to see me go into another illness.
Thankfully, Mark was able to set the market up, pass out vendor checks, and hand out orders! This allowed me to stay home to feel better!
Thank you to the market Bread Heads for understanding, and I will call you to set up when I can get your orders to you!
Thanks to everyone who made the market easy, tonight!
And, let’s hope your manager is on the way to wellness, and that the sunshine returns to us all!
The market is now open
Peace, Love, Good Vibes
