Roy Collins is on a distinguished road
Go to the local health food shops and ask the manager there if he/she knows of any macrobiotic people that shop there and leave your number for them to call you. Try to enroll in a macrobiotic cooking class. The people in charge of the health food shops always know who the macrobiotics are. Maybe they have a bulletin board where you can find a message or leave a message.

In the 60's there was a communal type macrobiotic restaurant in NYC called The Paradox on 1st and 7th st in the village (also The Caldron one block over). A number of single macro people used to eat there alone and strike up conversations with each other and become friends and attend lectures and health seminars together. There are a number of macro and vegetarian restaurants in NY. Maybe go with a friend.

There are macrobiotic travel guides and a number of names and addresses with phone numbers are included there. Make a few calls and ask those listed people in your region if they can show you the ropes or make suggestions for you. There are summer macro camps in the US and in Europe. You can sometimes meet many friends there and share ideas.

There are some macrobiotic communities that I heard of; one I think is in Alaska, but I don't have the details. There are also macrobiotic food producers and growers who you can possibly work for and meet people there. I think there are a lot of opportunities to find what you are looking for. Maybe someone at the other macro forums (this is the health forum) can better answer your questions.

In peace, Roy
