The Foremothers Cafe is a virtual world in AltspaceVR inspired by Hanna's cafe in Helen Lundstrom Erwin’s historical novel, "Sour Milk in Sheep's Wool." It is set in Lund, Sweden in 1918.

Hanna and her friends gathered in her cafe after closing to fight for women’s equality, and to support each other while they dealt with the issues of the day. The Foremothers Cafe will have the same function for us, with the added benefit of meeting women from anywhere in the world without the need to travel. We will have author readings, discussions, history talks, lectures, or just gather to be together.
