Fork in the Path offers forest-to-table and ocean-to-table learning programs for the adventurous of all ages across Northern California. We believe learning to forage and eat seasonal wild superfoods such as mushrooms, sea urchin “uni,” seaweed, plants, and acorns is transformational. Connecting with the land helps us become more connected, whole, healthy, and happy.

We build community through foraging and cultivating a respectful and reciprocal relationship with the land. We answer “Can I eat that?” and invite curiosity about everything we find within the ecosystems of our outdoor field classrooms. We also offer workshops on mushroom cultivation, cooking with foraged foods, and processing them into herbal medicines, gifts, pickles & ferments, and foraged art like basketry and natural dyes.

We partner with phenomenal teachers, authors, and thought leaders who bring a combination of ecological expertise, shared values, and group facilitation skills.

Because reciprocity is one of our core values, all programs are fully permitted within the lands that host us. We acknowledge our programs take place on the ancestral lands of the Ohlone, Kashaia Pomo, Nisenan, and Miwok First Peoples, and donate a portion of every program to non-profits led by Indigenous communities such as the Native American Rights Fund. We encourage you to consider contributing to this organization or others that speak to you.

Throughout our lives, we find new passions that change our lives forever.
