Calling all food and wine lovers! If you are looking for a really good excuse to avoid doing the same old thing… you are in luck! Happening this weekend in and around Detroit are two exceptional choices for events centered on the ever so popular food and drink!

The Live Love Local Celebration will be taking place at Detroit’s Eastern Market. All you self-proclaimed “foodies” out there take notes; this event will feature culinary demonstrations by some of Metro Detroit’s top chefs! Take in the sounds of the live performances from local Detroit bands while sipping on Michigan made beer and/or wine.

The Live Love Local Celebration is hosted by the Greening of Detroit, a not “for” profit organization that focuses on working towards the reforestation of Detroit and edibleWOW Magazine, a quarterly publication that reports on the food scene of Southeastern Michigan. All proceeds of the event will benefit The Greening of Detroit’s education programs and projects, as well as their planting efforts.
