The Hive
The Hive is a collective with a culture of sharing in Portland, Oregon. We are a home that holds space for the broader community and each other as a chosen family. We are working on intentional communication, anti-oppressive practices and building resiliency.
Headwaters Ecovillage
Headwaters is a multi-generational community nestled into the wooded hills of Cabot, Vermont. The community began in 2011 and today consists of 8 households on 14 acres. They are situated at the headwaters of the Winooski River, hence the name. Most households have built their homes using natural or sustainable building techniques. Homes are clustered near each other to allow for greater shared open space. The design of the community is loosely based on permaculture principles.
Village Hearth Cohousing
We are an LGBTQ+ focused, 55+, community in Durham, NC, with 15 acres of wooded land just 15 minutes from downtown Durham. We are gay and straight, single and coupled, working and retired, from Durham and beyond, and we represent a variety of professions, skills, and interests. Our Vision is to live in an active, caring community with the infrastructure to age in place, balancing the privacy of a smaller sustainable dwelling with opportunities for social engagement and the support of the larger community.
