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!

Another Thursday Evening!


Another market in the weekly books, and here we are, again, ready to make it all happen, once again!

Market pick up was lovely, as always, and I loved chatting with each of you! You truly make my week!

I came home, opened a bottle of wine, watched the sunset, am enjoying a fire with this lovely chilled evening, and enjoying a bit of time with my visiting girl!

As I sit, and think about all that I am thankful for, I add to the list, you and this market.

Enjoy, and order!

Also, asparagus season has come to an end, but we now say hello to garlic scapes season!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
