About us
I started Shadow Fern Passionate Singles because I saw so many people in our community who were genuinely looking for something real but kept getting stuck in the same cycle of superficial dates and dead end connections. It felt like there was no space where singles could just be themselves, share their true interests, and meet others who were on the same page about building something meaningful. I wanted to create a group that felt different where intentionality meets fun, and where relationships could grow naturally through shared experiences.
Outside of events, members stay in touch by getting to know each other during gatherings and following up in their own way some trade numbers after hitting it off over coffee tastings, others plan small meetups based on common hobbies they discover here. There's no pressure, just a warm, low key space where real connections can unfold at a natural pace. The group vibe makes it easy to reach out because everyone's here for the same reason to find something real.
I expect members to show up with an open heart and a respectful attitude. That means being honest about your intentions, treating others with kindness, and actually showing up both physically and emotionally. If you're here just to pass the time or aren't ready for a serious relationship, this might not be the place for you. But if you're ready to put yourself out there in a genuine way, you'll fit right in.
We meet every two to three weeks, rotating between relaxed and fun activities think hiking local trails, wine tastings, game nights, or cooking classes. The pace is steady but not overwhelming, giving you time to reflect and connect without feeling rushed. These aren't high pressure situations; they're opportunities to see how you naturally click with someone over shared moments.
If you're tired of swiping and small talk and ready to meet people who are actually looking for love, this is your group. Shadow Fern Passionate Singles is built for those who want more than a fleeting connection they want depth, chemistry, and the chance to build something lasting. Come as you are, bring your authenticity, and letβs create real relationships together. You just might meet someone who feels like home.
