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 Sunday!!
And…Happy Coffeehouse Cosmic Trivia! You guys went so crazy, Friday evening, with emails, texts, and messages, answering the Cosmic Trivia Question!!
The question asked what two Urbana/local coffeehouses used to feature my breads, for serving, and for selling, years ago!
Many of you emailed me, Madison’s, and while that was a correct answer, it was not the two I was looking for since I featured Madison’s, already!
The answers…The Depot Coffeehouse, and The Spotted Cow Coffeehouse!
And, we have five winners, all frantically sending answers at about the same time. How could I turn any away??
So…congrats to these market winners!!

YAY!!! Now…it’s cold, the sun is shining, but really it’s just too cold to venture out, so why not get your market orders in, while you are inside, staying cozy??
XOXO,
