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!
Monday Challenge!!
Good morning, and welcome to the week!!
Now that we are in the last week of February, and the weather looks AOK for Thursday pick up, I thought I would present a little challenge for the week!
What if everyone who has never placed an order, but has always been curious about placing an order, go ahead and let this be your week! It’s so easy to do, pick up is a breeze, and you are supporting all that is local, on this market!
For those of you who are the loyal, weekly, or monthly customers, as always, you know the goodness that awaits!!
I’m headed to get my ordering done for the week…will you join me?
The challenge begins!!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
