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!
Happy Tuesday with a Market Reminder!
Good morning, and happy day, and all the good vibes going into the coming week!
Just a reminder that orders are due in by 8am, this morning, and please remember that there will be no market, next week, with the Thanksgiving holiday!!
If you do happen to forget to place an order, the retail shop at Oakview Farm Meats, home of the market, will be open with most of the local products from the market, stocked in the shop, for your shopping needs!
XOXO,
