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!

Stumblin' In...


Now and then firelight will catch us
Stumblin’ in…
(Suzi Quatro/Chris Norman)

This song…bringing back the 1978 song implant, anyone?

We are stumblin’ back in with another opening night of market orders, and I have been on one big Suzi Quatro kick of late. Maybe it’s because I am in the midst of planning my Class of ‘82 reunion, maybe it’s her rock and roll attitude, maybe I just forgot how much I loved her…

Anyway, it’s the perfect song for singing, and it’s the perfect song for rocking into this week.

Go ahead, and stumle into all that we have to offer!

This week…we see S&S Naturals go onto vacation mode, but will return the week of Easter!! Then, maybe a short break while she gets work done in her greenhouse, before returning for the season!

And…we say, Hello, and welcome back to 4 Hens and A Rooster with their eggs!!

We also welcome new vendors…Be Bright Designs, AND, Crisp E Treats!!

Be Bright Designs makes the cutest stickers, tshirts, and other creative items!!

Crisp E Treats brings us organic dog treats, (working on cat treats), frozen pup cups for your furry friends, and hot chocolate bombs for your hot chocolate/hot coffee! (People treats)

We welcome all of the returning, and new vendors!!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
