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!
It's Monday, Honey!
Oh, yes, sugar pie, honey bunch…
It really is Monday, and we now really do have HONEY!!
Go ahead, rush right in, grab your market list, and make sure to make honey part of your weekly shopping, this week!
We finally have local honey, again, and we are so excited to welcome, Dave!! Make sure to go the Growers tab to read all about him while we wait for him to write us, a bit more, about his honey!
Ok, enjoy the local county fair. And, then…get your honey!
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…
