On March 22, take a tour with CUESA to Blue Bottle Coffee Co. and Hodo Soy Beanery, two East Bay businesses that have mastered the art of bean alchemy. James Freeman, owner of Blue Bottle, will lead a tour of his state-of-the art coffee roasting facility, showing how they create some of the Bay Area's most coveted caffeinated concoctions, and share a freshly-prepared coffee cupping.

Participants will also take a tour of Hodo Soy's new facility, where soybeans are transformed into luscious soy milk, tasty tofu and silky yuba. There will be special treats at each stop. The final stop will be the up-and-coming Jack London Market, where participants will eat lunch made with farmers' market ingredients, and get a tour of this exciting new addition to the East Bay foodscape. The tour costs $25 and includes lunch. Learn more and register here.
