(Planting Organic Gardens at the Monastery)
The monastery has recently created an organic garden. This project is part of the monastery’s larger hope to start sustainable, environmentally sensitive projects. We also feel that by eating organic food, we are not only helping our environment, but also having the community at Namo Buddha Monastery eat healthier, more beneficial food. In this way, we are ensuring the health and longevity of our community. In doing this we are also following His Holiness, The 17th Gyalwang Karmapa’s wish, found in His Holiness’s book, One Hundred and Eight Things You Can Do to Help the Environment. “61. Create Your Own Vegetable Gardens. It is important from both a health and an environmental standpoint to eat more leafy green foods. Growing your own vegetables will also help young monks and nuns better understand interdependence between ourselves and nature” (Pg. 27).
