    Seedy Sunday

    "May our heart's garden of awakening bloom with hundreds of flowers."
    Thich Nhat Hanh

    Spring is approaching! Although it may not seem like it in the past few days, spring equinox is only days away. Come and celebrate the reawakening of our earth and our innate connection to the beauty of the
    natural world.

    Maybe you have a farm, a tiny garden, or a balcony…….or maybe your garden is in your imagination.

    Sunday March 20, 12:00     please register for this event

    Come for all or part of Sunday sitting and then gather in the community room to share some soup and
    conversation about-------what else--------gardening!

    Bring ideas and possibly a dish to share.  Vegetable soup will be provided.

    • We can make shared seed orders (catalogues will be on hand or bring your favorite resource to share)
    • Could we share tasks in each other’s’ gardens, take on a community garden plot, commit to growing a little extra to give to the foodbank, grow flowers for the centre? Let’s talk about our ideas. Perhaps you live in an apartment but would be open to working in another’s garden to share the produce?
    • Let’s share our garden tips. How is tending our vegetables and flowers a natural part of our practice? What are the joys (and frustrations) of gardening.

    Programs without a price are free. For those programs with a price listed, please do not let price be an obstacle. Visit our generosity policy page.

    When available as an option, your generosity in offering the patron price helps cover the costs for others who are not able to pay the full price. Any amount offered above the Program Price is considered a charitable donation to the centre, and will be included in a tax receipt issued by email in February of the following year.

    For programs that have a register button, it is helpful for us if you can indicate your intention to attend by registering ahead of time. In order to prevent duplicate entries in the Shambhala Database, all registrations are reviewed before you will receive a confirmation email.

    Our Refund Policy:  For convenience you can pay online using a credit card via PayPal. If we cancel the program for any reason, we will give you a full refund. We understand that sometimes after you have pre-paid, you might be unable to attend.  We will be happy to refund your payment if you request it at least 24 hours before the program starts.  Due to the difference in PayPal charges for purchases and refunds, we charge a nominal amount of $5 for a refund.
