HERE IS OUR LIST OF RECOMMENDED LODGING ACCOMODATIONS. EACH OF THESE INNS OFFERS A $125 PACKAGE WHICH GETS YOU AN ALL ACCESS WEEKEND PASS TO OUR WELCOME GALA, FORAYS, AND PANEL DISCUSSIONS, + A SPECIAL GIFT BAG OF GOODIES FROM FORAGE MENDOCINO. THESE PLACES ARE RIGHT WHERE THE SYMPOSIUM ACTION ARE, AND THEY HAVE GENEROUSLY PARTNERED WITH US AS OUR HOSTS FOR ALL SYMPOSIUM WEEKEND EVENTS. FORAGE MENDOCINO SUPPORTS LOCAL INNS, AS THEY EMPLOY OUR COMMUNITY AND PAY TRANSIENT BED TAX WHICH GOES TO FUND OUR COUNTY’S NEEDS, LIKE ROAD MAINTENANCE. WE DISCOURAGE THE USE OF AIR BNB AND VRBO AS THESE CORPORATIONS ARE CAUSING A MAJOR HOUSING SHORTAGE IN THE AREA, WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO HOLD ONTO SKILLED PROFESSIONALS AND SERVICE WORKERS, AND WHO DO NOTHING TO SUPPORT OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY.
