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!

Sunshine Daydream


Sunshine, daydream, picture in the tall trees
Going where the wind goes, blooming like a red rose…
(Sugar Magnolia-Grateful Dead)

What a perfect song to kick off this beautiful sunshine day! On market pick up!! No torrential rains!!

You guys gave the market SO much love, this week, and we thank you kindly!!

Even though it’s a big market, we are not battling the weather of last week, so there are no time slots! Pick up is between 4pm-6pm!

If you need a Friday pick up, let me know!

Bring me your favorite song or tell me one of your favorite market items!

Fun fact about today’s song….when my daughter was born, I designed an all Grateful Dead nursery for you, and used two of their songs, and lyrics. This song was one of the songs!

Have a lovely day, and I look forward to seeing you at pick up!

XOXO,
