About us
On 4/7/26, this group changed hands and is now organized by Fork in the Path, an outdoor school for the adventurous of all ages interested in wild food foraging, such as mushrooms, plants, seaweed, acorns, sea urchin mussels, and more. Most events are within a 3-hour drive or less from the Bay Area. While our classes are listed on Meetup, all registrations must go through our website, www.forkinthepath.org
Most of our events are family-friendly, and children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent.
