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!
Market Reminder
Hello, and Happy Thursday!
Just a quick reminder that if you placed a market order, this week, your pick up will begin at 3:30, this afternoon, until 5:30!
If you need to make other pick up arrangements, please let me know, and I will organize it for you!
Also…when I reopen the market, this evening…I will be returning, finally!!! All of my breads and fun will be available!!
JC Growers has their early spring garlic!!!! Take advantage because the season leaves, so quickly!
And, we welcome back, Bell’s Flowers with her beautiful bouquets, fresh from her seasonal flower farms supplies!! Again, she only joins us for the growing season, so make sure to begin taking home her beautiful florals!!
Ok…I will reopen the market, this evening, and am excited to be back among the magic!!
XOXO,
