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!
Thursday Pick Up!
Hello!!
This is a note to all customers who placed market orders, this week!!
As you know, after tomorrow’s pick up, the market will go into vacation mode, for the following week, so that all vendors and customers can participate or enjoy at the Champaign County Fair.
That also means the shop will be closed for the week, as well!! So, if you placed a market order, and can pick up on Thursday, tomorrow, vs Friday, that would be super helpful!!
If not, I will make arrangements for you!!
Thank you!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
