Frequently Asked Questions

What if I'm an out-of-towner and I don't have anywhere to stay?

Please call Donna at 508-255-4047 or Deer and Diane at 508-896-0017 if you're from out of town and need accommodations.

I am a single mom with two kids; can someone help me out?

Children are important members of Daré. If you enjoy being with young people, consider offering to give parents a break and hang out with the young folks during some part of the day. Anything from holding a baby to taking kids on a nature walk or some other planned activity. If you're a parent and need some help, please ask. We are learning, as a community, to be there for one another in whatever ways are needed.

What do I need to bring?

There are no fees for Daré. It is pot-luck food and drink. We are especially pleased when contributions are organic and substantial, as the time of Daré covers two meals. There is always a community money basket at Daré. Please add money if you can afford it. Please take money if you need it.

It's my first time; anything I should bear in mind?

Daré is truly composed of all the members of the community: living and non-living, visible and invisible, human and non-human: the people, trees, birds, animals, stones, and elementals. When all the beings gather, Daré comes to be.

Each Daré will be different, as we respond to the joys and sufferings of all who have gathered, and as we respond to the circumstances of the times. Daré will continue as long as we continue to leave each other enriched, enlivened and inspired.
