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!
Vendor Love From The Shire Farm
Restocked!
Hey everyone,
Thank you for supporting local producers through the Champaign Virtual
Market. We just finished our first batch of chicken for 2023! We are
restocked on chicken breasts and thighs.
This week we are doing a few Mother’s Day Specials: 22% off the Brat
Pack and 23% off the Wings and Drums Pack, and 20% off the Wings Pack.
We have also discounted the Chicken Stock in a Bag, which will be
discontinued due to freezer constraints.
Thank you,
Nicole @ The Shire Farm
