Why <a href=\"https:\/\/sprudge.com\/tag\/bloom\">Blooms<\/a> (plural) of course. Back for the fourth event in as many years, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomevent.org\/2019-program\">Bloom<\/a> is an event series from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baristaguild.coffee\/\">Barista Guild<\/a> that \u201cbrings together some of the best minds in coffee, creating a unique opportunity for deeper discussion and engagement for attendees.\u201d And this time, they are doing things a little differently. Instead of hosting a single event over the course of a three-day weekend, Bloom is hitting the road throughout June, making four stops along the east and west coasts.<\/p>\n<p>Like with previous iterations, Bloom looks both within and outside the coffee industry to put together thought-provoking discussions and panel talks to provide \u201cthe opportunity for meaningful dialogue\u201d amongst coffee professionals. Each of the four stops will revolve around three primary talks. The first, <em>A Participant in the Evolution of Specialty Coffee<\/em>, will be led by 2106 USBC Champion and 4th place finisher at the 2016 World Barista Championship, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackwhiteroasters.com\/\">Black &amp; White Coffee Roasters<\/a>\u2019 Lem Butler. The second talk looks outside the industry (sort of). <em>Innovation Culture in Food and Coffee<\/em> is a \u201ccrash course one innovation culture\u201d led by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coffeemanufactory.com\/\">Coffee Manufactory<\/a>\u2019s Chris Jordan and Chad Robertson, the founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tartinebakery.com\/\">Tartine<\/a> who exists amongst the breadmaking pantheon (ask one of your baking coffee friends, there are a ton of them (us)). The final discussion is more community-focused. <em>Creating Coffee Communities of the Future<\/em> is a panel discussion featuring local coffee professionals who will be talking about what it takes to create a thriving, inclusive coffee community (it ain\u2019t just throwdowns).<\/p>\n<p>The June 2019 Bloom events stops are:<\/p>\n<p>June 17: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomevent.org\/atlanta\">Atlanta, GA \u2014 Counter Culture<\/a><br \/>\nJune 19: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomevent.org\/washington-dc\">Washington, DC \u2014 Small Planes Coffee<\/a><br \/>\nJune 24: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomevent.org\/salt-lake-city\">Salt Lake City, UT \u2014 Campos Coffee<\/a><br \/>\nJune 26: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomevent.org\/los-angeles\">Los Angeles, CA \u2014 Coffee Manufactory<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the past, Bloom has taken a little heat for the cost of attending the event, but thanks in part to sponsors <a href=\"https:\/\/www.davincigourmet.com\/\">DaVinci Gourmet<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificfoods.com\/food-service\/\">Pacific Barista Series<\/a>, the price for all four events has been cut in half. And tickets purchased before May 30th are even cheaper. Early bird rates run $50 and $65 for SCA members and non-members, respectively. On May 31st, prices increase to $60 and $75, with group discounts available at $40 per person (minimum of five required).<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the event or to register, visit Bloom&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomevent.org\/2019-program\">official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em><a class=\"addbackground\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dallas_coffee\">Zac Cadwalader<\/a>\u00a0is the managing editor at Sprudge Media Network and a staff writer based in Dallas.\u00a0<a class=\"addbackground\" href=\"https:\/\/sprudge.com\/author\/zac-cadwalader\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more Zac Cadwalader\u00a0on Sprudge<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Top image via Bloom<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/sprudge.com\/tickets-are-now-available-for-the-bloom-event-series-by-the-barista-guild-142942.html\">Tickets Are Now Available For The Bloom Event Series By The Barista Guild<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/sprudge.com\">Sprudge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Coffee News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April showers bring May flowers, and what do May flowers bring?
