We are delighted to offer two day-long work parties coming up soon on April 9th and 10th. During these difficult times, we can find great joy and fulfillment in coming together as sangha to offer our hands-on Dhamma support by working on important projects, dedicating our efforts to the happiness, well being and ultimate liberation of all beings.

These work parties will begin at 9:00 am and wrap up by 4:00 pm. After lunch each day we will have an optional group meeting for people interested in exploring additional ways to offer volunteer help at Cloud Mountain.

TO ATTEND:  Formal registration is NOT required. We do ask, however, that you send us an email about a week prior to the work parties letting us know what day(s) you will attend, with which kinds of projects you are most interested in helping, and any special dietary or medical restrictions you may have.

These days are intended to be day-long events, with lunches and snacks provided to all. However, if you’re traveling some distance and would like to stay overnight we will be delighted to offer you housing and meals while you’re here with us. If this is the case for you, please also add this information to your email and let us know for which nights you need housing.

We will offer covid-safe projects inside and outside.
