Sunday Feastival in Melbourne, 9th July 2017

Hare Krishna Valley is an organic farm and retreat centre based upon the principles of eastern spirituality and dedicated to demonstrating an example of eco living, organic gardening and the practice of bhakti yoga.

On the second Sunday of each month the members of HKV open their doors and hearts to one and all to share their culture and way of life.

Guests arrive at 12 noon, and are greeted with a smile before entering the Temple room to participate in the blessing ceremony, which is accompanied by mantra chanting and dancing. For those who prefer to just sit back and observe, there are comfortable couches provided.

We then engage in an enlightening philosophical discussion, which includes questions and answers with one of our senior monks. Sit back and ponder as they lead us on a journey into the meaning of life in a light hearted and sometimes humorous fashion.

At 2pm everyone partakes in a mouth watering vegan/vegetarian feast, prepared with love and devotion by some of our expert chefs. Each month offers a new cuisine from around the world, and everyone leaves with a feeling of satisfaction and a full belly!

After the feast our guests are welcome to join us for a walk to visit our cows. Our farm follows the principal of ahimsa (non violence), which means our herd live their whole life without fear of being slaughtered.

Guests are encouraged to give a donation for the day; usually around $10 per adult and $5 per child. Please inform us a few days before how many persons you wish to bring, so that we can cook enough for everyone!

There is ample parking on site, and disability parking is also provided. Please note that this is a family friendly event and no alcohol, drugs, meat or smoking is allowed on the property. Check our website or Facebook page for updates.
