Introduction

My wife and I are planning to live in Italy for a year--returning to live in the Belfast Cohousing & Ecovillage (Belfast, ME). The near zero energy design approach of our prototype was featured in the May/June issue of Maine Home+Design magazine.....

How did you hear about cohousing?

Visited a B&B in Portland Maine and a guest shared her story. We've been hooked ever since...

What is your connection to community, if any? Which neighborhoods have you visited/toured/lived in/co-created?

Toured Cambridge Cohousing, have been active members in the Belfast Cohousing & Ecovillage for almost two years and are planning to visit other communities in Europe.

What are you seeking in community: particular towns/neighborhoods, building types, community sizes, focusses?

An attention to overall sustainability, using permaculture, smart technologies and architectural design.

Additional Information

"Our Open Houses are held on the second Sunday of every month--featuring family-friendly activities, and are a wonderful way to have fun and learn about the community at the same time. Contact us for more information at info@mainecohousing.org. "
