Stardew Valley
All things Stardew Valley.
You could be that mayor Lewis. Someone has to build it.
Where would a random person start?
That’s a great question, and I guess it really depends on what you want to do and where you live.
Is first find a place to have the event and contact people who have authority there. If it’s your neighborhood, then the home owners association.
If it’s a park, then whoever runs the park.
I don’t live in America anymore and I could go to the neighborhood government about setting something up.
If you engage in certain types of volunteering, you can get a similar feel. It's not exactly the same as a community event, but you get to know people with similar values to yourself.
I wish I knew like anybody. I don't know my neighbors and they don't seem that friendly. My direct next door neighbor is shy like me, we get along well but we never socialize. Also we're the only young (I mean not that young I'm almost 30 lol) people in our neighborhood. Everyone else is 60+ and not accepting of younger generations just being different (like how we use technology even and won't send our kids to mow their lawn for 50 cents). I wish we had a multigenerational community where they acted like a good family like in Stardew Valley.
Honestly, small towns like this very much still exist. I just had to move from a small town in Kansas and I sorely miss it. They may seem hard to find, but it's because they're the ones you don't find on lists online.
Absolutely. Like you, I'm trying to get involved in/build up my local community. I tend to a small farm, so I've been taking a page out of Stardew's book; it turns out most people really do like being gifted vegetables and animal products!
