Jenny has carried these lessons with her, making a mark in the food industry. Starting in 2012 at farmers’ markets, Three Trees has grown into a thriving East Bay company, always staying true to its values of purity, nourishment, and respect for nature.

Raise a glass and toast to National IPA Day this Thursday, August 7th, by enjoying your favorite India Pale Ale (IPA). IPAs are known for being full-bodied, bold, and  bitter, and they typically have a higher alcohol by volume (ABV) compared to many other styles of beer. The history  of IPAs dates to the 18th century, when they were first brewed for English ships bound for India. The higher hop content allowed for better preservation during the long journey. Although the popularity of IPAs faded in England over time, they experienced a resurgence with American craft brewers in the late 20th century, leading to the diverse range of IPAs available today. If you love IPAs or would like to try one, join us at our San Carlos location on August 7th from 3 PM to 6 PM to sample San Carlos’ own Devils Canyon IPA.
