Community Work Party, Fairfax, CA

Come enjoy community and help work on the beautiful land in Fairfax that was purchased by Open Circle co-founder Rob Schwartz a few years before his death. Help Rosie, the caretaker of the land, and Open Circle in continuing to realize Rob’s dream of using this special property as a place to gather together in satsang.

The emphasis of the day will be on clearing trails and creating space around the outdoor meeting sites on the property. This will include raking, pulling Scotch broom, using a small hand or circular saw to trim small branches off fallen trees, repairing fencing, and some watering. And preparing a community salad!

We will start at 10:00am with a brief meditation. We will then work until noon, enjoy a potluck lunch until 1:30, then go back to work, ending around 4:00 pm with another brief meditation. You are free to come and go as your schedule allows.

Please bring work gloves and any tools you may have for clearing trails. Dress in layers and bring a hat. Long sleeves and long pants are recommended as we will be working around poison oak.

Also, please bring a dish to share, and water to stay well hydrated. And feel free to bring your friends!

Heavy rain will cancel.

RSVP/Registration is requested (though not required) to give us a sense of how many people are coming.
We will also then provide the address and directions.
