Dharma Tea on Tuesdays led by Rev. Seido David Sarpal on the topic “The Citrus Experience: A Visit to the Todolí Foundation” – online only
Todolí Citrus Fundació is a project born from the natural reaction of Vicente Todolí to his family’s link to citrus growing and the urbanistic threat that could put an end to that memory. Today, with nearly 500 varieties from all corners of the planet, this orchard is probably the largest collection of citrus fruits grown outdoors in the world.

Twelve ABZ members met up at the NorthEast side of Farragut Park NW for a sunlit walk to the Lincoln Memorial Grounds. Over the past months many people had been following the travels of the Peace Monks on Pilgrimage from Hương Đạo Vipassana Bhavana Center in Fort Worth, Texas to Washington D.C. Wednesday at 2:30pm they were slated to arrive at the Lincoln Memorial grounds where thousands of Washingtonians were gathered to silently greet the monks and offer support for their message of practicing peaceful behaviors to create a peaceful world. It was a lovely day!
Meet up at Farragut Park NW
