"We are a diverse group committed to creating a cohousing ecovillage that fosters a cooperative sense of community, shares and conserves resources to live more lightly on the earth, and supports each others' growth, well-being and joy."

Welcome to Montpelier Cohousing!

     We are creating a cohousing neighborhood of 12-16 homes in Montpelier, Vermont. We envision owning our individual homes, clustered on a small portion of the site. We will also share a central common house with such facilities as a large kitchen, dining area, and social room. Architectural design will be focused on the values of our community: sustainability, affordability, and aesthetic integration into the surrounding area. Most of the site will be reserved as open space and for permaculture.

      We use a consensus decision making process, based on the principles of empathetic communication, and have all appropriate organizational and legal structures in place for our project. We have an option on a beautiful 10-acre site with stunning views of the Green Mountains, just 1.5 miles from the town center, the capital of Vermont.

     Regular monthly meetings of Montpelier Cohousing are at 6:30 p.m. on the second Thursday of each month. Meetings take place in the Unitarian Church of Montpelier on Main Street.

      In addition, we have committee meetings for working on particular topics, and also monthly potlucks for welcoming and orienting interested parties and new members.

     If you are interested in attending a meeting, please speak with any member or contact Christie Sternbach-Feist, Membership and Outreach.
