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!
Tuesday Reminder!
Just a quick reminder to get your orders in by 8am, this morning!
I have not done much market blogging, over the weekend, because I was busy getting ready to film a local cooking segment with Hippie and the Farmer, and Cosmic Charlie! Your other market manager featured Oakview Farm Meats, and then this lovely little market was super heavily featured!
It was a crazy day, and now, it’s my reminder to order!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
