St. Joseph's Abbey is a Trappist monastery in Spencer, Massachusetts. It is known for its production and marketing of jams and jellies, which partially supports the abbey. In 2013, the abbey became the first Trappist brewery outside Europe. The monastery is also known as one of the origins of the centering prayer movement in the 1970s. The grounds of the Abbey are generally open to the public except for certain areas reserved for the monastic enclosure.
St. Joseph’s Abbey was settled in 1950 on the former site of Alta Crest Farms, under the leadership of Dom Edmund Futterer. The Trappists that settled the abbey moved there from their previous location in Cumberland, Rhode Island, which was heavily damaged by a 1950 fire.
