Sesshin Cost

Sesshin suggested donations includes lodging and meals, ending with a community lunch on the last day. We try to keep sesshin costs as low as possible but rental of a retreat facility and food costs necessitate our fees. Still, if you need to pay less, simply do so, as others donate extra and it all works out.
