Edit; The community seems to be really gone, here is a new one! /c/foraging

Title is really the question, I swear the Foraging community was more or less thriving the other week I checked it. What happened to it? Did it merge with this one or?

I don't know the answer to your question, but for a moment I wondered if they all post to random communities and you have to go find them.

You need to forage for all foraging related posts

For being very funny, I award you this:

I would also like to be part of an active foraging community, so if anyone finds the foragers let me know

I really don't know what happened to the previous one, nor do I know who created it (is there a way to check this?) I wouldn't mind creating a new one though, but not sure if its really necessary if this community exist? I guess it depends on the mods thoughts?

Mycology is more about the science of fungi. There's clearly intersections but I think it would be weird if this mutated into a foraging community. Can you link to the foraging community you were talking about?

[–] LunchEnjoyer@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I created a new one, as the previous one seems to be completely gone. I can see that all my previous posts from the community are also gone :(

Anyways; /c/foraging

Maybe for now we can just turn !herbalism@slrpnk.net into Herbalism/Foraging. They are so closely related.

Too late hihi already made a new community 😅 !foraging@lemm.ee

[–] schmorpel@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 years ago

Yup, hihi already found it and joined! 👍

Finding dedicated mods who are experts will be crucial to saving lives and making sure people aren’t risking poisoning themselves

[–] schmorpel@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago

I would, with my limited but sometimes useful knowledge (source: haven't poisoned myself and have stared at plants and mushrooms and eaten some for twenty years).

I just went to make a post yesterday and it was gone. Glad I’m not the only one who missed it. Perhaps deleted by its creator? Weird to me that they can do that.

[–] WalrusByte@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I had a couple posts on the other one, but looks like they got nuked... :(

!foraging@lemm.ee for easier access.

[–] WalrusByte@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Already made a post! :)
