Directions/notes:
Mepkin Abbey is full of history. Take a day to appreciate it all. Beautiful gardens and statuary, a store full of wonderful beauties and edibles, including eggs from their working farm. The labyrinth is large and even though fall perennials make early October the peak season, it is lovely anytime.
