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!
Happy Friday!
Hello, customers and vendors of this little local market of love…
Just a reminder that our annual State Of The Plate celebration is taking place, on October 8th, at Pretty Prairie Farm!!
The deadline to reserve a seat at the table is by the end of business day, today!! Please call the Champaign Chamber of Commerce to place your reservations!!
It is always such an amazing day of sharing food, stories, meeting various market vendors, and celebrating all that is grown/produced locally, in Champaign County!!
Don’t forget…the deadline is today!!
