What we’re about
https://outsidesocial.net/groups/foraging-friends-roanoke/
We are migrating to Outside Social due to predatory pricing here at Meetup.
Please take a moment to sign up and join the group.
Foraging Friends, Roanoke meets in person once or twice a month to forage edible, medicinal, and otherwise useful plants in the wild. Since the group's creation, we've found lions mane mushrooms, paw paw fruit, apples, garlic mustard, wild carrots, etc- over 50 wild edible plants and mushrooms have been identified over the course of these events. There is always something new to learn, and new people to meet.
We are slowing down a bit for the Winter, but I will prepare a couple of basket weaving classes so the community has something to do during the season of depression- stay tuned.

We are migrating away from Meetup due to their predatory pricing. (They are going to automatically delete the group in 30 days, without letting us go back to a free tier group, unless someone who is willing to pay $40/month will take ownership of it. They don't mention this when you pay for an organizer subscription, but it's outlined in their Terms.)1 attendee
