Seattle, Washington, May 1, 2012 - EverGreen Escapes
Seattle-based nature, adventure and culinary tour operator, EverGreen Escapes, announces the Cascadian Cuisine Ultimate Adventure, an exclusive experience through an epicurean landscape of the Northwest’s islands, valleys, mountains, farms, wineries, small towns and big cities. You will forage, taste, cook and enjoy the bounty of this fertile landscape, and then burn energy hiking, cycling and kayaking with your expert naturalist guide, before relaxing in luxurious lodges, spas and resorts.
You’ll discover why The New York Times found Northwest cuisine to be a destination in itself:
“It is to experience something that even many larger, more gastronomically celebrated cities and regions can’t offer, not to this degree: a profound and exhilarating sense of place.”
Specially crafted by EverGreen Escapes to showcase Washington State’s unparalleled bounty, this all-inclusive adventure itinerary combines unique and exclusive activities with indulgent accommodations, exquisite dining and luxury transportation. From exclusive winery visits, to extraordinary meals, to in-depth education, we combine the flavorful bounty of this fertile region with the boundless activities that make Cascadia a food, wine and nature lover's utopia.
