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 invited to join us on this bus tour & "traveling workshop" of Portland's Cohousing communities which will be led by a local & knowledgeable cohousing resident. Trillium Hollow, Cascadia Commons, Daybreak Cohousing, Columbia Ecovillage & Kailash Ecovillage or Peninsula Park Commons will be visited. Lunch will be served in the common house of one of the 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 & 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 & 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 & 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 & individual space. Private homes contain all the features of conventional homes & residents also have access to extensive common facilities such as open space, courtyards, a playground & a common house.

We look forward to having you join us on a day full of learning, community building and fun.
