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!
Saturday In The Park
People talking, really smiling
A man playing guitar
Singing for us all
Will you help him change the world
Can you dig it?
(Chicago)
What a great song to start out this day, on this snowy morning in March. But, no matter the weather, you can still have all the Saturday vibes in your soul. And, I’m choosing to hang on to the warm weather waves that I am still riding from vacation.
The market is open, it’s always a sunshine, Saturday kind of feeling when you order, and you don’t want to miss out on one minute of market fun!!
Go ahead…dig through your vinyl, or pull up your playlist, and blast this song while you order. Your vibe will be riding high…
XOXO,
