Open House, On Farm Sales TOMORROW-Wednesday June 20th 4-6PM
Posted 6/19/2012 9:38pm by Leslie Cooperband or Wes Jarrell.
Greetings local food lovers:
Just a brief reminder that we're hosting our second farm open house tomorrow from 4 to 6PM. We'll have plenty of cheese for you to taste and to buy including fresh chevre, several styles of soft-ripened cheese and some of our delicious Roxanne--a raw sheep milk cheese.
It's gelato eating weather for sure, so come on out for scoops or pints of your favorite flavors. We've got rhubarb swirl, fresh mint, honey (in honor of pollinator week), strawberry sorbetto for single servings and even more variety of pints for take away.
Stewart will be here with bagels, breads, biscotti (great to accompany the gelato) and assorted other baked good.
Lucky Duck Farm won't be here this week (unfortunately), but they might be back next week.
Slow Food Champaign Urbana and Illinois Stewardship Alliance have teamed up with several restaurants here in the Champaign Urbana area to offer a series of "Local Flavors" dinners this year. These dinners feature dishes prepared from locally sourced ingredients. The first one of the season is at Cafe Luna in downtown Champaign. Here are the details:
