Bring water to a boil in a Dutch oven and add vegetables, salt, pepper & celery seeds. Cover, lower heat and simmer 10 minutes or until vegetables are done. Melt butter in a large saucepan. Blend in flour and gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Boil one minute. Add cheese and stir until melted.
