Chapin Mill is a 135-acre country property that was donated to the Rochester
Zen Center by Ralph Chapin, one of its founding members. Ralph's vision
of the land as a site for Zen training matched the decades-long dream
of the Zen Center to establish a rural retreat center. This dream began
to materialize, in April 2000, when the
groundbreaking for the new retreat complex took place. Construction
on the building, documented in our photo
gallery, began in the spring of 2000. When the professional contractors had finished the majority of their work, Zen Center staff, trainees, and local volunteers began the process of completing the building. Hammers, nails, cedar shingles, and drywall suddenly became the "skillful means" of training and practice at the Zen Center.
