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 Morning Mood
Good morning on this Monday following holiday and holiday weekend!!
That Monday morning mood is sinking in, I am sure, but we are here to help transition you from the haze!!
So much goodness on the market, and, did you see that Champaign Berry added BLACKBERRIES?? My favorite!!! Make sure to take advantage because just like the raspberries, they are only in season for a short time!!
Also, zucchini from JC Growers was added back to the market!!!!
AND, FYI, if you need Cosmic products, you need to order, this week, because I will be off the market, next week!!
Let’s make the Monday mood the BEST mood ever!!! We are here to make you smile!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
Happy Fourth Of July!
Wishing all of you a very Happy Fourth Of July!!
And, I am opening the market, early, today, just to get the ball rolling for orders!!
Have a safe and happy weekend, and in your downtime, throw us some love!
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
