Earth Sangha is a nonprofit with a mission of ecological restoration as a form of socially engaged Buddhism. They’re based in Washington DC, but also maintain a plant nursery and relationship with a farmers association in a town not far from where Kevin and I live.
We spent an afternoon with Chris Bright, the founder of Earth Sangha and his son and the conservation manager of the organization, Matt Bright, talking about Earth Sangha's reforestation efforts in the Dominican Republic. Learn more about Earth Sangha here: http://www.earthsangha.org/
