About Bear Necessities

Bear Necessities is an online collaborative recipe book project. Dane Groves created the site as a way to share recipes with his friends.

Dane Groves first became interested in cooking when he became a real adult (sometime in his late 20's) and realized he could no long live on Raman noodles and Mac & Cheese. Now he tries to eat mostly healthy things (and lots of donuts) that some people [Dee] think are gross.
