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.

    Into the Ancestral Realm: A Ritual Journey for Ancestral Connection

    Location not specified yet

    **Register here, NOT on Meetup: https://www.forkinthepath.org/schedule**

    A Ritual and Guided Journey Into the Ancestral Realm
    You’re invited into a ritual container that begins with an invitation for self-study with some suggested resources. What regions are your ancestors from, and what might they have foraged for food and medicine? The ritual then builds on the knowledge and transforms into embodied wisdom about your ancestors in a life-changing experience of deep connection that leaves you wanting more.
    This is the quintessential ritual workshop covering the who, what, when, where, why, and how of building a connection and practice with your ancestors.
    Come to learn. Come to share. Come to deepen into the beauty, rawness, and richness of your ancestral heritage.

    Sat, October 31st. 4:30pm-7:30pm

    FREE Wilderness Safety - Tools & Tips (online)

    Location not specified yet

    *Register HERE*

    In this free live & recorded talk with Marin Search and Rescue & Fork in the Path, we will share tools and tips to stay safe in the woods. Foraging can get so exciting that we can end up disoriented. It also puts us in places where we are in remote, off-grid locations. What would happen if we had an accident or became lost? We’ll cover:

    • Basic wilderness safety tips
    • Equipment to consider carrying: navigation, technology
    • What to do if you have to spend the unexpected night out
    • Environmental injuries, including wild animals
    • Case studies that demonstrate how Search and Rescue works

    This is a free talk, but advanced registration is required.

    Join us for a magical mussel foraging adventure on the Sonoma Coast. You will learn how to sustainably forage, clean, and prepare our beautiful California coast mussels – as well as an overview of the land’s history, intertidal zone ecosystem, and what it means to be a good steward of our land and waters.
    If you haven't experienced freshly foraged mussels, you will be in for a treat!
    A post-foraging feast of mussels on the beach provides the perfect gathering spot to learn how to care for your mussels, ask questions, and enjoy the view. Everyone will have an opportunity to sample the bounty of what we harvested from the sea and share their takeaways from the tide pools.
    Each person will take home up to 10 lb of fresh foraged mussels to share, recipes, and instructions.
