Ferns X Grounded Events

Ferns and Grounded have teamed up to create cozy, connection-focused evenings for our local community. These events are all about showing up as you are—whether you're looking to meet new people, relax with familiar faces, or just get out of the house for a bit. With warm drinks, playful themes, and zero pressure, there's something for everyone (parents and non-parents alike). Come hang out, have fun, and feel part of something real.
