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!
Do You Miss Me?
Or, should I say, do you miss my Weblog ramblings?
My computer is getting the RX love that it needs, and, after a whirlwind of activity, the Hippie market manager is cooling her jets for just a bit!!
Soon, I will begin to ramble on, continue my trip Down The Rabbit Hole, and blog more frequently, again!!
Until then, this market opens, tonight, with amazing products, spring time bounty, and all the local goodness you could want!!
And, soon, we may get a new cheese vendor!! Will know more when I chat with her, tomorrow!! Thank you to the Miami County Locally Grown market for sharing!!
So, with tonight’s entry, I open the market!!
XOXO,
