In Vermont’s cozy towns and scenic countryside, The Ethel Gathering Groups offer older women the chance to build community close to home. Women 60+ connect in private Facebook groups to organize in-person events—think café conversations, creative workshops, or fall foliage walks. It’s a simple, enriching way to find local friendships and support.


Want to see a group in your area? Visit our Gathering Group FAQ page for more information. These private Facebook communities, designed for older women, create in-person opportunities to connect—whether it’s brunch, a group walk, or a shared hobby. Led by local hosts, the gatherings help turn online friendships into lasting bonds.
