Read it:

Berkeley and Oakland, 2009 to 2022. Two business seniors with offers in consulting and investment banking hear one sentence in an ethics lecture — that mushrooms can be grown on used coffee grounds — and email the professor, who tells them he has no idea where he read it. Ten paint buckets in a fraternity kitchen produce nine failures and one crop. Thirteen years later Back to the Roots moves a hundred million dollars a year through American cash registers and what it sells is bagged soil and seed packets. In between: a coffee chain that pays them to haul off its waste, a national oyster-mushroom market too small to hold them, and a box whose ingredient list quietly stops mentioning coffee. Covers Nikhil Arora, Alejandro Velez, and Back to the Roots.
