This is a micro cache hidden at the location, Chelsea Farmer Supply. Busy Area, watch for Muggles! BYOP and the toothpick is to get the log out :)
The location, Chelsea Farmer Supply, was once located on Main Street as the Old Hotel or Chelsea House Hotel, this is one of the oldest commercial buildings in downtown Chelsea. After it was moved to the present location in 1889, it was converted into a boarding house.
In 1926 it became a feed grinding mill and was operated first by miller Ransom Lewis followed by Anton Nielson until his retirement in 1989. Then it was sold to the present owners who continue to operate it as a feed store (without the grinder). Come in and see a one house sleigh, have a soda, or try some of their amazing gourmet chocolates (I say there is never to much of them), and experience an old fashioned famer's supply destination. If you want to learn more about the Chelsea Farmer Supply history, (and even get a free spur of the moment tour) just ask the owner about the history of the place.
Just across the street, you will see the Chelsea Train Depot, it was built by the Michigan Central Railroad in 1880. It replaced an 1850 station that was destroyed by vandalism and fire. The triple-gabled bay windows on both ends offered views of incoming trains by both the station agent and passengers. It remained in service until the early 1980s. For several decades wool was shipped by train from Chelsea to all parts of the country, making it one of the largest distributors of wool in America. Since 1986, the Chelsea Depot Association has owned and maintained the depot as a community center, and you can rent it for your next party or special event.
