Let’s talk about cohousing.

Cohousing is an intentional community that increases social interactions with your neighbours and reduces the risk of loneliness; It is gaining popularity across Canada!

Join us for a lively discussion and learn more about what cohousing is, why it works and whether it is a good fit for you? Meet people currently living in cohousing, and people who are currently building their communities in the lower mainland. Looking for a community to join? There will also be forming groups joining us who are seeking new members.

This is what people are saying about cohousing:

  • “…the best future for many people, they just don’t know it yet.”
  • “…community living today with yesterday’s values.”
  • “…to create authentic community and avoid isolation in a fractured world.”
  • “…a journey…an adventure…caring and sharing…challenging…inspiring..THE FUTURE!”

(Foundation for Intentional Community)

Join the conversation and participate in our many table topics that will having you asking,

  • How well do I know my neighbours?
  • How often do I share meals with others and why is it important?
  • What is the main barrier that keeps me from getting together with people more often?
  • What do I do (or could I do) to make my community a better place?

We look forward to having you over for Tea, Dessert and Cohousing Conversations.
