As part of this year's Oregon Bounty campaign, you can win a one-week "cuisinternship" with Le Pigeon chef Gabe Rucker.

This year’s edition of Oregon Bounty — the statewide celebration of food, wine, beer and spirits that runs through Nov. 30 — serves up some terrific travel experiences in Portland and beyond, plus a few cool surprises:

  • a brand-new website that includes a searchable database of culinary events and destinations;
  • cuisinternships for seven lucky foodies who’ll win week-long apprenticeships with an Oregon chef, craft brewer, distiller, cheesemaker/chocolatier, rancher, fisherman or vintner; and
  • whimsical maps designed by Portland artist Justin “Scrappers” Morrison, who runs Grass Hut gallery with my pal Bwana Spoons.

Planning your trip? Check out our Portland Perks hotel package, which includes dining discounts at The Heathman Restaurant, Saucebox, Jake’s Grill and other Portland favorites.

Also available: fly/stay/drive packages on Horizon Air.
