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!
Tomorrow’s Order Pick Up!
Hello!!! What an amazing gorgeous day and evening!!
I am taking this time to give you the lowdown on tomorrow’s pick up!
We have 60 customers, and huge amounts of product! We want to streamline the pick up so that not everyone is arriving, waiting, and jammed up!
So, we are breaking it down, alphabetically!
A-K…..your pick up time is the 4pm-5pm time slot!
L-Z…your time slot is 5pm-6pm!
We will have marked signs for entering, and exiting, and will run it like a school drop off line! Pull up, one behind the other, and Mark will take any payments, and alert me as to what box to bring out!
Thank you, so very much, for understanding the need of the split times!
With the size of this market, we are also asking that you double check your orders with the forms that are attached to your boxes, to make sure it’s all there!
See you, tomorrow!!!
Thank you for being awesome!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
