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!

Mother's Day!!


Here’s your reminder that this Sunday is Mother’s Day!!

Wouldn’t it be so awesome to gift your mother, a mother, a fur baby mother, or just a mother to all, a gift from this little local market? We have SO much in the way of gifts!!

AND…what about all of the local food that we have to offer? Are you grilling? Baking? Cooking? We have all the things you could possibly need to make the day even more special!!

Also…the asparagus is going fast, and make sure to watch the market, tonight, for any additional quantities!!

The market closes, tomorrow, at 8am…

And, if you need Cosmic bread for your celebrations…even though I am injured, I do have a good frozen selection…

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
