Happy spring! These beds are waiting for your TLC! Are you interested in building community through horticulture? Are you interested in Buddhism and how gardening cultivates more than just plants? Come and get involved and help us grow this idea into a food forest!
We are planning to work with the Master Gardener's Plant a Row for Hunger program. Cultivate community with us while enjoying the fresh air and spring sunshine in the beautiful Sierra Foothills.
If you can't make it in person you can donate funds or plant starts in person or by donating via PayPal to Bright Dawn Center (there's a donate button on the website brightdawn.org). We are excited to revive this garden and carry on the work of our beloved teacher, Reverend Koyo, 2 years after his passing. 🙏🌱☸️🌞❤️‍🩹
You can check out his Dharma talks showcasing the beets and potatoes he grew at his YouTube channel:
