As many of you know we are running a separate fundraiser via gofundme to build a meditation center in Ontario.

One goal of the meditation center is to run live in-person retreats. We are in the midst of viewing properties and searching extensively for an appropriate location. In the meantime, we look forward to gathering and practicing together at Deerhaven. 

Thank you for your continued support!

May you be happy and well!
