The 2022 Plum Village Newsletter is filled with personal reflections, articles, photographs, and poems to celebrate Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh’s life and Plum Village’s 40th anniversary in 2022. At 186 pages, it is far more than a newsletter! The copies are expected to arrive at the end of July as a downloadable PDF, to be followed by a limited print run through Parallax Press. There is no cost for the print edition except for shipping and sales tax (although donations are welcome).
While this publication is free, a significant amount of volunteer time and energy has gone into its production! If you feel moved to support efforts like these to share news about our community with the world, we invite you to offer a donation as you are able. A suggested contribution to cover the cost of producing the annual Plum Village Newsletter is $20 USD.
