*The Chelsea District Library will offer “food themed” activities, and families are invited “Everybody Cooks.”  In partnership with the U-M Museum of Natural History, the library will explore why the same ingredients or types of food pop up all over the place, how geology relates to food, what cultural transmission is and participants will also get to make their very own bread starter.

*Garden Mill, will offer children a free “make and take” activity.

“The Chocolate Extravaganza in downtown Chelsea is a perfect way to celebrate Valentine’s Day with a loved one, shake off the winter blahs, enjoy scrumptious treats, and support local businesses,” according to event information.
