The Cohousing Association of the United States presents:
Cohousing Bus Tour - Portland (Oregon)
Saturday, November 7, 8:30am-5:30pm, Portland, OR
MORE INFO: www.cohousing.org/node/2519
Curious about Cohousing? Looking for more community in your life?
A personal visit to a variety of cohousing communities offers you an experience that no photo, website or book can offer. To provide you with this opportunity, the Cohousing Association of the United States (Coho/US) sponsors daylong tours of cohousing communities in several areas around the nation.
You are cordially invited to join us on this bus tour and "traveling workshop" of Portland's Cohousing communities. Tour will be led by a local and knowledgeable cohousing resident. We are planning to include Trillium Hollow, Cascadia Commons, Daybreak Cohousing, Columbia Ecovillage and Peninsula Park Commons. Lunch will be served in the common house of one of those communities.
As you travel between locations on a comfortable bus, the tour leader(s) will give participants a chance to introduce themselves, share general information about cohousing, answer questions, provide fact sheets and site plans, and prepare you for your 40-minute visit to each community.
At each stop, a community host (often a long-time resident) will guide your group through his or her neighborhood and answer questions. Mid-day, we will have lunch in one of the communities common houses in the company of some of their residents.
Cohousing communities offer nurturing places where people of all ages grow and age well. Cohousing is a type of collaborative housing in which residents actively participate in the design and operation of their own neighborhoods.
Cohousing residents are consciously committed to living as a community. The physical design encourages both social contact and individual space. Private homes contain all the features of conventional homes, but residents also have access to extensive common facilities such as open space, courtyards, a playground and a common house
We look forward to having you join us on a day full of learning, community building and fun.
