Letting Go Garden has provided fresh organic vegetables and puja flowers to the Mountain of Attention Sanctuary for the past 7 years. InitiaIly developed in 2008 by Amos Schieber and Jeff Hughes (who farmed together for 15 years at Adi Da's Naitauba Island Hermitage in Fiji, growing food for everyone), the garden has been managed and primarily served by Amos - with the hands-on assistance of his p
artner, Lynnzee Elze (my mother). Many other devotees have served periodically throughout the years: Mark Harris, Jeff Hughes, Peter Harvey-Wright, Judy Wendling, Michele Krueger, Jill Sanna, and Windsor Riley to name some. The garden sits at the edge of the Man of Radical Understanding horse pastures and is watered primarily from the pumphouse there. It sits near the base of Letting Go Mountain on the Mountain of Attention Sanctuary. All labor, equipment, tools, supplies - everything the garden has needed and produces has always been given as service to the Mountain of Attention Sanctuary and saves thousands of dollars annually on food and flower costs. Any garden surplus was and will continue to be given to needy Lake County devotees and sold through the local devotee-owned food delivery service Green Gorrilla.
