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 Time Slots


We had a record amount of customers, this week!! Over 100!!

So…last night, I stayed up late to run reports, give out last week’s credits for the lettuce, and divide the names into time slots.

A-C…4pm-4:30

D-H…4:30-5:00

J-P…5:00-5:30

Q-S…5:30-6:00

T-Z…6:00-6:30

It’s going to be a full house!!

I ask everyone to pull forward, as far as possible to where I will greet you, under the awning, and near the courtyard.

There are an amazing amount of plants and florals which will be set up in the courtyard, with a market helper, bringing those to your car, as well!

As soon as you are loaded with your market items, you may go ahead and exit! We do ask that if you need to get out of your car to go into the shop, please pull out of the mainstream of traffic.

I have strategically placed the same numbers into each time slot, so if at all possible, pay attention to your times!

Let me know if you would like to be Friday delivery!

Ok…I am off to bake the day away, and look forward to seeing all you, tomorrow!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
