For our 2026 retreats, all pricing is based on lodging. Please choose the option that best fits your ability to give at this time.
Note that registration fees do not include dana for the teacher(s). In the Buddhist tradition, the teachings are offered freely and teachers are not paid for their offerings. They rely on dana contributions from students. We appreciate your generosity and support in building a community of practitioners committed to the Dharma.
Sorry, but this program only has 30 spaces available. You cannot add more people. Try a different program or different dates.

Retreat Volunteer - Must have previously sat retreat at Southern Dharma
Retreat Volunteers are expected to serve in the kitchen for 1 hour and 15 minutes before lunch and dinner on all retreat days. Tasks may include any or all of the following: Putting away clean dishes and utensils, washing dishes before the meal, setting food out on the buffet, preparing salad dressings from recipes, and other basic tasks as assigned by the cook. Retreat Volunteer may also be asked to serve breakfast from 6:30am to 7:30am each morning. No prior experience is required.
We ask that Retreat Volunteers arrive between noon and 3pm on opening day so they can settle in and hlep in the kitchen from 4pm to 6pm to serve opening night dinner.
Outside of these assigned tasks, retreat volunteers are welcome to attend all regular program sessions and participate fully in the retreat.
There is no fee associated with this service. Retreat Volunteers are, of course, welcome to offer dana to the Center at any time they choose to and they are invited to offer dana to the teacher(s) at the end of the program.
