Since assuming management of Javorie in January 2023, we have effectively relocated to the area. As there is currently no management house on the premises, we are in the process of gradually constructing one. For the time being, we are utilizing one of the cabins for our living arrangements. To create a sense of feeling at home at Javorie, we have already initiated our first small garden, cultivating tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and zucchini (with the hope that deer won’t discover them!). Our ultimate objective is to expand the garden over time and, starting next year, provide its produce to the meditators who visit for individual summer meditation (self-retreats). This way, they can enrich their daily diet with fresh vegetables and fruits.
