Spring Karma Yoga Update

Poppy from last year's Karma Garden

We gathered around the fire recently to talk about Karma Yoga and came up with some great ideas.

Karma Garden Time:  Spring is just around the corner so we are excited to get the Karma Garden going again.  This year we will expand to include not only Joyce and Darrell Cooley's garden but also Kristi Tonti's garden in Suquamish.  Our hope is to expand to provide organic produce not only for Helpline House but also for Fishline in Poulsbo and for our own community at BYH with a market table in the studio.  Our kickoff work party will be at the Cooley's on Sunday, April 7.  Hopefully this will work for those wanting to get their hands dirty!  As usual, kids are invited and welcome.  we will focus on getting the dirt ready and planting seeds and starts.  Bring what you have or just come and help.  We will have more specific information with times and addresses as the date gets closer.

Karma Library:  You've probably seen a little free library somewhere in your travels and we thought it would be fun to sponsor one on Bainbridge Island - likely somewhere at Battle Point park.  If you have carpentry skills or materials that we could use let us know!  If you'd like to suggest a spot on the island for the library comment here.  Contact Julie Bennett at partera@drizzle.com with questions, offers and ideas.

Karma Yoga Community Service Day:  We are looking for ways to serve together in our community those who need help.  We have contacted the Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers and hope to find a place or person needing help with yardwork, housework or other things amenable to group service.  If you have ideas, please let us know - comment here or email Helen Burke at hburke8@gmail.com.

We will meet again on Thursday, March 21 at 10:45 around the fire at BYH - maybe the sun will be out!  Hope to see you there.
