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!
The Thursday Love!
Good morning all of you groovy market customers!!
Once again, you blew me away, this week, with your orders!
The vendors, and the market, thank you, kindly, and I can hardly wait to greet you, this evening!!
There are no time slots, so come, anytime between 4pm-6pm! If you need a Friday pick up, and you are not on my Friday list, please let me know!
It’s going to be a sunshine day, again, and nothing makes your market manager happier than sunshine at market pick up!
Give me your songs, give me your favorite market products, and I will write all about your thoughts!
See you soon!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
