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!
Thursday Note!
Good morning, on this lovely October day!!
Just a market reminder for you to pick up your orders, this afternoon, 4pm-6pm, or make arrangements to pick up, tomorrow, 10am-12pm, if you placed orders for the week!
We have quite a few new customers, this week, so just a reminder about payments…
You may call me, with credit card info. that I keep in the market files, and makes it easy for you, to never have to worry about having cash or a check!
If you bring cash, please put it in either an envelope or ziplock bag, with your name on it!!
If you pay by check, please make it out to Oakview Farm Meats, with your market total!
Thank you, so much, to all of you, for the continued support that continues to build this long running, first of it’s kind, back in the day, local online market!!
