New Group

Food preservation, cooking and Baking and restaurant

Williamstown, MA

This group is for beginners and experienced pressure canning and water bath canning women and men who desire to learn the art of Canning, and also mentor beginners. Exploring new restaurants to satisfy our food palette and meet new people for friendship, commrodery, sense of humor, laughter and fun. Like minded people who love to cook and bake and invent new recipes. I have a strong desire to learn how to water bath can and pressure can as a beginner and being with the community of people that either know how to do it, or have a desire to learn how to do it would be fun. That is for future food preservation in the event of famine or shortages of food that we have sustainable supplies in our home. I love to invent new recipes and tweak regular staple foods to make a restaurant type dinner. Explore places to eat. Find a place to meet that has a kitchen with either a gas or electric stove, that is reasonable for all in the group to do our cooking baking and canning projects. This group will not tolerate political agendas of any type, wokeness, leave your sexual orientation outside the door of this group, I am not interested in knowing it. In this group you are either a biological male or biological female and will be treated as such. I will not use pronouns to address you. A real life common sense, traditional Christian values mindset is what this meetup group will offer.

Berkshires Friends

Lenox, MA

My wife and I are recent part-time residents who thought it might be nice to get together with other Berkshirians for dinners, theater, museums or other social activities. This is such a wonderful area with so much to do and we thought it would be fun to share our enthusiasm and enjoyment of the many resources and activities that the Berkshires offers. As our group gets going I'd like to anticipate meeting for some interesting activities at least once a month. The goal would be to not only enjoy these wonderful activities but to foster and nurture friendships. I'd like to propose that attendance at any get together be limited to no more than eight or ten people as I've found that larger groups don't really allow for people to 'connect' too readily and local restaurants often would have difficulty accommodating larger groups. If you have any questions, suggestions or observations, don't hesitate to contact me through the Meetup app/website. Going forward the following policy will be in effect: **Subject to organizer's discretion, any member who RSVP's to an event will be expected to attend or change their RSVP no less than 48 hours prior to the event. Any violation of these expectations will result in removal from the group.** I hope you understand the need for this policy and ask that everyone be respectful of other group members' time and desire to meet one another. Best regards, Myron

Pittsfield MAtch-up

Pittsfield, MA

Local singles looking to hang out. Tired of perusing dating apps to no avail? I am inundated with singles groups in the big cities but I am not willing to travel 90+ miles to meet a guy. If you are married or attached, have a significant other please don’t join. New to the area? Work got you too busy to date? Lets plan to mingle once a month. This is easy. Worst case scenario; you get out and meet someone new😏. Maybe it will be your new friend, maybe it will become your new love. Low pressure atmosphere, join activity of interest.

I’m christian, educated, motivated and have a healthy diverse set of interests. I am a busy professional but I feel that should only be one aspect of life. I will be meeting at Panera in Pittsfield early to mid November-ish to select some activities and get this up and running. Hope to see you.

Berkshires & Beyond Women 35+

Adams, MA

Attention ladies, 35 and up! We all get how important it is to have our friends around, right? Whether it's sharing a laugh over drinks or having a heart-to-heart, these moments mean the world. But let's be real, sometimes keeping these connections alive can be a bit of a struggle - especially at this stage of our lives. That's where this group comes in! We understand all too well how challenging it can be to maintain friendships and forge new ones. But guess what? Despite living on opposite ends of Berkshire county, we've managed to build a close bond and have a blast together. And, if we go a while without catching up, no biggie! Life gets busy (or we get lazy), we get it. But, we're making a conscious effort to be better, and we'd love for you to join us. This meetup is all about making it easier for women 35 and up to hang out and have a good time. Whether you're from the Berkshires or beyond, you're more than welcome to join us. You can participate as much or as little as you desire, with no questions asked. We're planning all sorts of activities - hiking, attending festivals, grabbing a bite, volunteering, you name it. And, if you've got some ideas or would like to facilitate gatherings, just give us a shout. Let's make this our own little community and have some fun together! \- Tracy and Krystal

DecentraTech Collective Community Meetup

Williamstown, MA

The **DecentraTech Collective** is an open community with a common focus on accelerating the understanding, development and adoption of decentralization technologies (DecentraTech for short), including blockchain and Web 3.0 approaches, to address fundamental business challenges and opportunities within the new data-centric global economy. The DecentraTech Collective provides education programs and advocacy initiatives for these transformational technologies, drawing on the expertise and services of our Partners. It operates globally and supports the development of decentralized finance, decentralized commerce, decentralized ESG and decentralized government. One particular advocacy focus is on Health 3.0 (aka Health3 and "Ownership Health"), which will allow individuals to own, control, share and monetize their personal health and health-relevant information. The DecentraTech Collective spun out from the Austin Blockchain Collective in the fall of 2021. The groundbreaking and award winning Austin Blockchain Collective was launched at SXSW in 2018.

Calling all caring eaters, growers, producers and investors in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Western Massachusetts. This regional group will be supported by smaller, more localized groups formulating local initiatives.
