Discover Heirloom Cuisine Announces Culinary Vacation Adventures with Cherry
Picking Picnics, and Artisan Cheese Making

SEATTLE, April 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Discover Heirloom Cuisine
(www.discoverheirloomcuisine.com), a week-long reality experience, meets
increasing demand for culinary travel vacations, following the footsteps of
farmers to learn the story of sustainable, heirloom foods and farms.

Culinary travel vacations have been designated as the fastest growing travel
segment providing travelers connection to authentic travel, and a desire to
discover back roads with a unique personal experience.

Recently released, Discover Heirloom Cuisine provides domestic culinary
vacation itineraries featuring agriculture diverse North Central Washington.
Small group environment, maximum 12 guests, experience daily lifestyle
immersion, farm visits, boutique artisan producers, and chef demonstrations.
Daily menu selections are made by guests, feature fresh heirloom produce,
seasonal fruits, and vegetables, chosen directly from local growers. Workshops
and field trips build a bridge to ongoing sustainable agriculture, providing
tools to create their own healthy cuisine when they return home.

Strolling with the sheepherder, learning to make artisan cheese, cherry
picking picnics, creating breads and spreads, heirloom grains and fruits,
cutting fresh herbs for dinner, and personal chef instruction, are a few
scheduled opportunities.

Culinary travel is sizzling hot for 2009, a top pick by Specialty Travel
Trends and Destinations by the Specialty Travel Agents Association. The STAA
states a growing demand for travel that includes local cuisine with gourmet
itineraries: "Options worldwide may include learning about food production,
local market excursions, cooking classes, artisan workshops, wine tasting and
farm stays. Food is a testament to the richness and vibrancy of a culture, and
it forges understanding, connects people, and reveals traditions layered with
history. Despite economic challenges, people are continuing to pursue travel
experiences that allow them to indulge in their passions and invigorate their
mental well-being."

Each Discover Heirloom Cuisine program explores agriculture rich destinations,
cross-cultural and reality experiences. Guests are enticed to discover the
flavor of the earth, share creative cuisine, feel personal substance through
relationships to sustainable agriculture, to rural roots of agriculture
history, and raised awareness of value and benefits to future generations.

Director Marcia Green states: "We trust our Discover Heirloom Cuisine guests
will find their spirit connected to the land, enriched by agriculture history,
yet feel responsible to future contribution and cooperation, to lead a more
healthy lifestyle with personal benefit and well being."
