<div><strong>About the Buddhafield Land</strong> </div>
<div>In 2006 Buddhafield bought 17 acres of gorgeous land in Dartmoor National Park called Frog Mill. It cost £85,000 and Buddhafield has done very well to pay off over £50,000 but there is still £35,000 to go. The land is used for holding some of Buddhafield's larger retreats (including our family friendly retreat) and has a salmon spawning river, the Blackaton Brook flowing through it which is home to kingfishers, dippers and a host of other wildlife. <br />
<p>The Buddhafield community have a heartfelt desire to protect the land and enable people to build caring relationships with the earth that supports us. The need to preserve healthy soil and habitats where wildlife can thrive grows ever more urgent in our time. Frog Mill is a well loved piece of land that Buddhafield wants to fully own as soon as it can.</p>
<p>It's a project very close to my heart: giving present and future generations precious opportunities to connect with the Dharma, the Land and with one another.</p>
