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!
Cosmic Trivia Hint!
And, if you can stand another market email from me, I am going to give you a hint to this week’s market Cosmic trivia question!!
Your guesses have been fun to read!! While I have been to so many of the concerts you have guessed, none of the answers have been my first concert!
So…here is a hint!
1977. I was in 7th grade, and our student music teacher arranged a class field trip on a Sunday evening. The band was/is very well known. They began as a fun, frothy, feel good band in the 60s. They hit a turning point with one of their most critically acclaimed albums, and turned their sound into a whole new direction.
I own that amazing album that changed their direction, but on that Sunday evening, in 1977, they were a mix of all their music!! The concert was in a university arena…
Go ahead…and, you must be an ordering customer to win the Cosmic product of your choice!!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
