Relish Culinary Adventures highlights Sonoma County's finest farms, bakeries, cheese makers, and restaurants through partnerships with chefs dedicated to locally sourced fare. On this Groupon-exclusive Healdsburg culinary adventure, up to 16 kitchenauts meet at Relish Culinary Center before travelling across the street to a kitchen tour and tasting at Charlie Palmer’s Dry Creek Kitchen. Back at home base, a local cheese maker leads a dairy tasting, and guests help to complete their own lunches from locally grown ingredients complemented by local wines. Cultivators of these local ingredients join the group to discuss their sustainable practices and the difficulties of teaching crops to recycle. For the tetrapodic tour's final leg, epicurean adventurers trundle over to Downtown Bakery & Creamery to delve into dough during a whirlwind galette-making session with baker and Chez Panisse alum Kathleen Stewart.
From season to season, dedicated foodie and chef Donna del Rey alters the menu that fuels each ambulatory education. Special guests also vary, including award-winning producers from Costeaux French Bakery, Bleating Heart Cheese, Marin French Cheese Company, Laura Chenel’s Chevre, Artisan Preserves, Longboard Vinyards, Kelley & Young, Goldschmidt Vinyards, Bellwether Farms, Middleton Farm, and Carrot Top Farm.
Some events on the tour involve a partner. While this Groupon is only valid for one admission, duos who purchase two Groupons can be paired together for these events.

The Groupon Guide to: Urban Murals
Urban murals are the best art because they're the biggest art. Here are some of the most inspiring scenes that can be found in every urban mural:
• Children with huge smiles full of music notes instead of teeth
• Citizens of all races holding hands in a chain to block a bulldozer that is approaching a hospital
• A crack in the sidewalk—inside it, there's a family having dinner
• Two old women playing chess for once
• All of the city's past mayors lifting a school bus full of sick zoo animals
• Roses sprouting out of guns, being watered by a blind man with a baby on his shoulders
