Get to Know Us

Unplugged is a local 501(c)(3) nonprofit rebuilding real community, one unplugged moment at a time. Neighbors gathering. Stories shared. Skills exchanged. Meals enjoyed. We are a movement for a kinder, slower, more connected way of living.

​

We believe in intentionally unplugging and stepping away from screens to make space for real human connection.​ We're here to map it, amplify it, and make it easier for you to connect.

🌿 What We Believe

Our neighbors are full of kindness, creativity, and care, but most of us never get the chance to experience it. Digital overwhelm, busy schedules, and isolation make it easy to forget the simple truth:

​

Life feels better when we're connected to people around us.

​

The Unplugged Collective helps neighbors rediscover each other through shared meals, community care, and unplugged collaborations.

✨ What We Do

A simple idea with big impact:

​

Bring people together without screens and without pressure. Just real community.

​

We host monthly Shared Tables, neighborhood workshops, skill shares, walks, gatherings, and other ways for people to meet, help each other and feel more at home where they live.

Programs

➡️ The Shared Table - our monthly 
     community potluck

There’s something powerful about a shared table. Our Unplugged Potluck brings neighbors together to slow down, share homemade food, and enjoy real conversation—no phones, no distractions. Whether you cook, bake, or bring something simple to share, everyone is welcome at the table. Come hungry for connection.

➡️ Neighborhood Walk & Talk

Sometimes the best conversations happen while walking side by side. Our Walk & Talk gatherings are a chance to step outside, move your body, and connect with neighbors at a relaxed pace. No agenda, no pressure, just fresh air, friendly faces, and space for real conversation.

➡️ Quarterly Skill Share

Everyone has something to teach. Our quarterly Skill Shares are community-led gatherings where neighbors share practical skills, hobbies, and knowledge with one another, from creative crafts to everyday life skills. It’s a chance to learn something new, meet new people, and celebrate the talents already living in our community.

The Unplugged Collective

Unplugged began as a simple idea: put the phones away and come back to what matters. Conversation, shared meals, and real human presence. What started as small screen-free gatherings has grown into something much larger.

​

Now we're evolving into a living network, a nonprofit dedicated to mapping, amplifying, and supporting community builders, gardens, mutual aid groups, and creative projects already bringing people together. We're still unplugging, but now its about unplugging from isolation and disconnection, so we can reconnect with each other and the places we call home.

​

Every dollar we raise helps us continue this work of creating accessible gatherings, supporting neighborhood initiatives, and building the local map that will make the efforts visible and connected.

​

If you believe in reweaving the fabric of community, we'd love your support. Together we can keep this movement growing. One conversation, one garden, and one act of care at a time.
