12/08/2022 12:00 AMBenincasa Community hosts a fall Community Work Day on Saturday, Dec. 10 at Benincasa Community, 2160 Durham Rd., Guilford.
Benincasa Community is a lay community named for Catherine (Benincasa) di Siena, the peacemaker, mystic, theologian, and reformer. Dedicated to the works of mercy and justice in an era thirsting for humanity's collective recognition of unity and interdependence within all of creation, members of Benincasa are grounded by faith, an emerging understanding of the new cosmology, the development of new economic models in our world, and the need for deepening relationships with the land and one another.
The work day is from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and a simple lunch will be prepared. Participants are encouraged to bring something else to share.
In its first growing season, Benincasa Community was able to share over 2,100 lbs of fresh, local, organic vegetables with nearby food pantries and retreat centers.
