Description:
Berkeley Moshav is a forming cohousing community in Berkeley, CA where Jewish life will be a prominent component of community life. This means that much of the connection among neighbors occurs through Jewish ritual, tradition, culture, and values. Residents have the opportunity to do many Jewish things together: celebrate Shabbat and holidays, study Jewish text and topics, learn Hebrew, take on tikkun olam (social action) projects, say kaddish, etc. Jewish life will help connect cohousing members to one another, and living together in cohousing will nurture our Jewish life. However, despite our distinct focus on Jewish tradition and values, we are open to everyone irrespective of religious affiliation. Residents need not be Jewish or participate in Jewish-related activities, and while many of our communal activities will involve Jewish life, we will engage communally in other ways too. We also intend to participate fully in the life of the surrounding civic community, being good neighbors, hosting neighborhood events, sponsoring service projects, supporting local initiatives and businesses, and offering support and community to people of all faiths and backgrounds.
