The Abbey of the Genesee is a community of more than two dozen contemplative monks located near Piffard in the town of York, New York. They are a member of the Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance, commonly known as the Trappists. They were founded from the Abbey of Gethsemani in Bardstown, Kentucky in 1951. The Abbey of the Genesee is well known for its production of "Monks' Bread" which is baked by the monks and sold commercially, providing an income stream to support the monastic community. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbey_of_the_Genesee

I almost got hit by a car running across the street to take this picture...which is weird because cars are hardly ever on this road. This is the best picture I've ever taken.
