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 October!!
Good morning, Happy October, and your reminder that you will have an hour to get your weekly market orders in!!
You don’t want to miss out on end of the season tomatoes, fall scented candles, fall/winter squash, baked goods, meats for your fall dishes, or for a weekend of grilling since the weather looks lovely, ahead!
This is the time to stock up on fresh garlic to store for the upcoming winter season!
If you need decorative gourds and Indian Corn, you can get it, here, to decorate for the season!
Also, this time of year is perfect for the jams and glazes and sauces offered!!
Breads and soups are the essentials for fall dining!
And, Freshwater Farms offers so much to add to your dinner bag of tricks!
Indian Creek Creamery milk, Snowville Creamery cheeses, and local eggs are always great for stocking your fridge!
And, while you are at it, why not treat yourself with body butter from My Daily Hemp??
And, to keep it sweet, and local…grab honey from either Lippincott Honey or Ladybug Acres!!
Whatever your needs, we keep it real, we keep in local, and we keep loving your smiling faces, each and every week!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
A Cosmic Love Note
Just letting you know that the soup menu will be changing, next week, so grab the current menu while you can!!
Also, remember that my soups are perfect for stocking your freezers, so you have easy access on those busy days and nights!
I also wanted to remind you that I moved all of my Cosmic bread products from the bakery goods section to my own Cosmic section. And, along with my soups freezing really well, so does my bread. A perfect combo to walk in the door, grab out of the freezer, and have the perfect autumn dinner ready in minutes!
My products are great for either freezing, or breaking into, the minute you get home…
Just a bit of Monday Cosmic Love…
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
Monday, Monday
Monday, Monday, so good to me…

Monday…that one day of the week that really determines your journey for the week. We all have the mindset to start out on a great note, but any little twist or turn can take you in a whole other direction.
This little market is here to take your Monday orders, and we hope that it helps steer you, all week long, with a bit of ease, happiness, and puts a smile on your face!
We are here to be your Monday Local Happiness Squad!!
You have until tomorrow morning, at 8am, to get your orders in…
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
