Vermont Zen Center Buildings

The Vermont Zen Center complex is three buildings, called the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha Buildings.

There are extensive gardens in both the front and back of the Center. The Zen Center land is private property, but you are welcome to stop by for a visit—we just ask that you please call first to be sure that someone is at the Center and that we are not in retreat.

Adjoining and behind Zen Center lands is the Upper LaPlatte River Natural Area, extensive walking trails that are maintained in partnership with the Lake Champlain Land Trust.
