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!
Hey, Now!!
Don’t forget…it’s Tuesday evening!! We are one hour away from the market closing for the week!!
Get those orders in…especially because we have so many fresh herbs from Swisher Hill Herbs, early produce from End of the Road…little by little, we are seeing the start of the season!
Go on…you know you want to…show us some of that local love…
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…
