- Here’s a fun itinerary for an outing in Powell that happens to end with a cozy dinner at home. First, browse The Chamber’s special Valentine’s Day Farmers’ Market. Farmers’ markets are so hard to come by this time of year and this is not to be missed! Next, stop at Kraft House No. 5 for some cozy ambiance and a warming cocktail. Hop across the street to Local Roots… an awesome eatery now with a “take ‘n bake” menu. High quality and delicious dinners are prepped and ready for take-out. Just cook it up at home! Before leaving town don’t forget to run across the street and grab a pint of Jeni’s for a romantic dessert. https://www.facebook.com/PowellChamberFarmersMarket/?fref=nf http://www.krafthouse5.com/ http://www.localrootspowell.com/new/ https://jenis.com/scoop-shops/jenis-powell/
- Sunbury’s “The Glass Rooster Cannery” hits the road to share their skills and knowledge with our neighbors to the south. Grab your favorite foodie friend and visit the Dublin Parks and Recreation Center from 1-3pm to take a class on homemade mustards and chutneys. It’s a hands on class and you can sample the results… what beats that? Sign up at: https://recreation.dublin.oh.us/wbwsc/webtrac.wsc/wbsearch.html?wbsi=9a9853c6-c5ab-a0ae-e511-82b468bc90be
