Our dream is to create a neighborhood that recaptures the essence of community: To create a human environment that fosters interconnectedness, safety, growth, and meaningful lives; to create physical aspects that serve the needs and enhance the well-being of the individuals and the community; and to live in harmonious relationship to our place on the earth.

Our cohousing neighborhood includes 28 homes (mostly duplexes) clustered around a common house. There are also five "associate member" (privately owned) houses built along the road leading into Rocky Hill Cohousing.
