Outdoor Spaces
The Abode is mostly forested with hiking trails, a private pond, a mountain with an outdoor camp, an organic farm, and multiple gardens. You can rest in the stillness of nature and renew yourself while visiting the Abode or attending any of our events. Every season has its own unique beauty and character.

Entrance Gardens
The Abode entrance gardens are filled with yellow in early spring vibrant purples in early summer, and deep pinks and reds late in the season. It is a great place to meditate, stretch, and listen to the birds.
Meditation Hall Gardens
Behind the meditation hall, there is a Zen style rock garden and rakes available to all who want to participate in meditative gardening. There are also assorted flower gardens and benches around the meditation hall that are perfect for relaxing and sharing.
The Abode has many beautiful gardens on its main campus. From time to time, we give guided tours but you are aways welcome to enjoy them on your own.

"Eleven years ago, I discovered the Mountain camp. It is so beautiful I have been back here as its caretaker every summer.."
