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!


As we have been doing, each week, celebrating all things market, and the coming of the 10th anniversary of the market, I bring you my gift to you…Cosmic Trivia for free Cosmic products to the winner!!

This week…two winners can happen because there are two answers to my question!!

And, you will need to dust off or look up your Grateful Dead song knowledge.

Since the weekend was all about my daughter’s upcoming wedding, I had thoughts about her, young, a baby, and how it seems like just yesterday when I was designing, drawing outlines, and painting the walls and ceiling of her baby nursery.

The theme was pulled from two Grateful Dead songs that I combined for her…

What two songs were used? Each customer can name just one song. You can send your guesses as many times as you like, until I get two winners.

Ok…go, fill your world with Grateful Dead tunes…I’ll be waiting…

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

PS…have you seen all of the loveliness of this market’s offerings? We’ve got it all, and it’s all waiting for you…
