This event is part of National Cohousing Open House Weekend

Twin Cities Cohousing Network (TCCN) is a charitable not-for-profit educational organization that educates Minnesotans about the benefits and features of cohousing communities and why they are spreading around the world. Our service area extends beyond Minnesota into a few counties in Wisconsin (Douglas, Pierce, and St Croix) because of their close economic ties with Duluth and St. Paul.

TCCN’s unpaid volunteers give their time generously because they believe that cohousing communities help us live better together by reducing social isolation through shared meals and activities, increasing resilience through cooperation, and lowering our carbon footprints by sharing resources.

Come see what it looks like to live in cohousing neighborhoods in the East Bay:

• Visit sustainable intentional communities in the Berkeley-Oakland area.
• See how they blend privacy and community, with individual homes plus a Common House.
• Get a taste of what it's like to dine together, with regular common meals.
• Learn about each community's unique design, how it came together, and the innovative approaches to affordability, diversity, inclusion, and sustainability each embodies.
• Find out how to learn about future openings in these communities and new ones in formation in the area and beyond.
• Free and open to all; individual communities may have refreshments for sale or other opportunities to support them or their members work.

Led by East Bay Cohousing, the regional umbrella network for cooperative community living, in partnership with EBHO, the National Cohousing Association (Coho/US), the Bay Area Cooperative Housing Network, Bay Area Community Land Trust (BACLT), and more.
