Virtual Tour of Intentional Communities

REGISTER NOW

Thinking about joining an intentional community? Curious to learn about communities from them directly? Want to peak inside community living and get your questions answered?

The Virtual Tour of Intentional Communities is the event experience for you! Each month we bring together a variety of new and established intentional communities — ecovillages, cohousing, shared homes, coliving spaces and more — to present about about their community in an interactive setting. You’ll experience photos, videos, captivating stories, and insightful dialogue among the presenting communitarians. Plenty of time is included for you to ask your burning questions about community living. Come travel to communities around the world without leaving your armchair!

What you’ll get from the Virtual Tour experience:

• Deeper insight into the lives of communitarians and the places they live
• Inspiration to get you excited about your own community journey
• Information about housing and membership opportunities
• Network building with presenters and fellow participants
• A sense for what’s alive in the communities movement right now

This Month’s Presenting Communities…

Tierra Nueva Cohousing

California

We are a multi-generational community set in a beautifully landscaped avocado orchard on California’s Central Coast. While we live in a private, quiet, safe setting, our neighbor, Pismo Beach, is a bustling travel destination with fun-filled activities and stunning views of the ocean. Even the monarch butterflies love coming here every year. Our 27 homes are passive solar designed, our Common House incorporates solar energy, and members are welcomed to participate in the community garden.

 

Milagro Cohousing

Arizona

Milagro Cohousing is a multigenerational neighborhood of 28 households clustered on eight of our 43 acres in the Tucson Mountains. Our mission is to create community living which values consensus decision making in a nurturing environment, encouraging the contribution and growth of each individual. We value living in an environmentally friendly way that is sustainable.

 

Burns Village & Farm

Tennessee

A group has formed to build a community in Burns, TN, about 25 miles west of Nashville, TN. We are planning for 28-35 homes and a 2-acre farm, with five wooded acres to be undeveloped. We have a contract on the land which has been owned by one family for four generations. They are supportive of our plans for this community. The 15-acre parcel includes an oak tree estimated to be centuries old, and frontage on a small stream. Private homes, a mix of single family and multi-family structures, will be clustered around shared spaces and designed to encourage interaction and social cohesion.
