A Neighborhood on Purpose

In our cohousing community members work together to create a socially rich community that is safe, sustainable, diverse, egalitarian, supportive, attractive and affordable.

Members collaborate to plan and develop their own neighborhood. Homes are owned privately but are deliberately clustered to provide a village-like common space that is protected from vehicle traffic. There is also a common house, which typically includes dining, recreation and childcare facilities and other amenities. In our community there is no effort to establish a religious or philosophical creed; what we share is a desire to live more economically, ecologically, and cooperatively.

Cohousing tour November 6

Cohousing.org is again sponsoring a fall tour of cohousing communities in New England. This year, the communities on the tour are all in Vermont.

Please note that

  • All of these communities are pretty much a straight shot up I-91.
  • If you opt for the morning tour (or all day), your carpool will need to get up to northern Vermont Saturday evening, and you will need to make your own arrangements for accommodations.
  • Cobb Hill (afternoon community) is 2.5 hrs south of the northern two.
  • If you opt for the afternoon tour (or all day), dinner is not included: appetizers at 5, followed by a slide show ending at 7 pm. Then we'll have dinner on our own, and a three-hour drive home.
