Ep. 149: Ride the Wave of the Bean
EQ: How can coffee and the outdoors empower young people to create positive change?
Guest: Quincy and Whitni Henry, Campfire Coffee
“We don’t claim to be coffee experts, we’re not coffee snobs. We appreciate a good roast, we love a rich single origin and a fun blend but if cream and sugar is how you roll it’s how we roll. We respect the nuances of coffee but even more, we respect that everyone has their thing. ✊🏾”
We were delighted to be joined today by Quincy Henry, co-owner of Tacoma’s Campfire Coffee. The audio is a little unstable and cuts out at times but we felt the conversation was extremely important for listeners to be a part of.
From the origins of campfire roasting methods to the lack of diversity in outdoor companies, programs and spaces, Quincy shares his story and experiences merging two things he loves–coffee and the outdoors.
To support this work, please swing by their store in Tacoma, pick up a bag of coffee at Trader Joe’s or visit their website Campfire Coffee.
