Hi Fedi Friends! In case any of you have friends or fam in #SouthernOregon, Ashland Zen Center is looking for help with their main fundraising event!

Some of you might know AZC for their farm stand on Tolman Creek (opens for the year on Monday!) or for their other community work.

AZC is a unicorn as a small town, non-monastic, Zen sangha. Items not sold at the yard sale will get donated other local groups.
