You will have a chance to experience first-hand the interconnection between earth, rain, sun, and seed with the hand and feet of a \u201cfarmer\u201d. The farms use a variety of organic and regenerative methods. The Happy Farms\u2019 volunteer teams practice mindfulness in our work as part of our vision of promoting wellbeing for individual, society and the earth (read more on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thehappyfarm.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">thehappyfarm.org<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We practice service meditation during the retreat on the Happy Farm when we will enjoy bringing mindfulness to our organic farming work for three hours each session. During the week we will share and experience together what it means to bring mindfulness to work. We also enjoy Plum Village mindfulness practices such as sitting meditation, walking meditation and \u201cDharma \/ Farmer sharing\u201d during the week. At the end of the week, we will celebrate together to say thank you for your presence and practice with us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This retreat is organised and facilitated by the lay members of the Happy Farm team. You will enjoy the core practice schedule in Upper Hamlet, including meal times and other activities related to the farm will be in separation to the wider monastic and lay community of Upper Hamlet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/plumvillage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC09874-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-503411\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plumvillage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC09874-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/plumvillage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC09874-499x333.jpg 499w, https:\/\/plumvillage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC09874-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/plumvillage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC09874-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/plumvillage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC09874.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u201d<em>Letting go give us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness<\/em> \u201d Thich Nhat Hanh<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Important information about this retreat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This retreat is mainly facilitated by the lay practitioners of the Happy Farm team.
