For us, our ideal, our hope can only be realized if we have a solid, beautiful community.
Thich Nhat Hanh
From July 10th – August 2, 2025, Plum Village will welcome practitioners of all ages to build a beloved community. While we will host special programs for families with children and teens, there is also a dedicated and full program for adults. Whether you are coming alone or with family, there will be a meaningful retreat experience for you.
Registration
Spaces for single individuals and couples (without children) will be available in all 3 hamlets.
When registering, please choose your preferred hamlet, gender identity, and Dharma Sharing Family, keeping in mind that availability may vary based on language, gender, or family status.
Families
Please register here.
Volunteering
The Summer Opening is not possible without the support of our volunteers. In order to truly offer stability and peace to the retreat, we prioritize volunteers who can make a one month commitment (arrive on July 4 and depart on August 5).
