Chesterfield is starting a new tourism push with two spring events: Chesterfield Restaurant Week and the Chesterfield Outdoor Fest.

From March 29 to April 7, dine at 35+ participating restaurants and a portion of proceeds will go toward Chesterfield Food Bank. Each restaurant will offer unique specials in honor of the week.

Restaurants that have already signed on include ML Steak, Carena’s Jamaican Grille, NAPA Kitchen & Wine, 21 Spoons, La Milpa, and Pakwaan Indian Cuisine.

A few days later, the county fairgrounds will host Chesterfield Outdoor Fest. Set for April 13 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the festival will include Earth Day races, touch-a-truck, adventure demos, a sustainability showcase, and food trucks.
