About

Potluck Dharma

The idea for Potluck Dharma sprouted from the meals and wisdom shared at our own tables with family and friends. It has now grown into a seasonal gathering where participants are invited to bring their own wisdom, reflections, and experiences to the table, much like the assortment of dishes at a potluck meal.

The day is all about sharing Ð insights, wisdom, and stories Ð creating a laid-back yet profound forum to explore spiritual truths and lifeÕs deeper questions. After a morning program of meditation, dharma talks, and discussion, weÕll gather in the afternoon with a delicious, farm-to-table, vegetarian meal that is included with registration, and equally important in feeding the soul. WeÕll close with an herbal tisane, dessert, and a special musical guest.

Join us to connect and grow together, while supporting a worthy cause.

Please note that this event will be recorded and potentially shared. There will be video recording of the teachers during the morning session and discrete photography of the group throughout the day. No faces or names of participants will be included on video. Your participation in this event implies consent for us to use your image or your voice, so please share accordingly.
