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 Market Day!
Happy Thursday, everyone!!
Just a reminder that it is market day, and you may pick up your orders anywhere between 4pm-6pm!
If you need a Friday pick up, 10am-12pm, please give me a quick email or text, and I will put those orders aside!
Thank you, once again, for another great week for the market!! And, with your orders, today, you will find that I will be including a few of our new market cards, made possible from a donation from one of our lovely market customers!! Feel free to hand a card out to a friend, family or neighbor, or if you work in a place that allows you to stock business type cards, that would be super as well!
We are so proud of this market, it’s customers, it’s vendors, and it’s almost 10 year old roots in the community, and we think our brand new cards reflect that…
See you, this afternoon…thank you, so very much!
XOXO,
