Beep! Beep! Mid-Atlantic Cohousing’s Spring BUS TOUR 2025 is Rolling

Note: The only way to see Blueberry Hill during the open house weekend is on the bus tour, which starts at Eastern Village Cohousing in Silver Spring, Maryland. Please do not come by except as part of the tour.

Excitement is in the air! Get ready to be part of something extraordinary as we visit THREE cohousing neighborhoods in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia. Plus, we’ll hear from several forming communities looking to build in the close-in suburbs, an opportunity for you to get involved early in these forming groups.

Tour Common Houses, shared land, and private homes in both urban and rural communities.

Meet longtime residents, people starting new groups, and other community seekers (and your potential community co-founders).

More Cohousing is happening in the Mid-Atlantic region! Talk one-on-one to members of forming groups or hear presentations about their plans for creating Cohousing in the close-in suburbs in Virginia and Maryland.
See what community living is really like!

Established Communities we will visit on the bus:

• Eastern Village
  Silver Spring, MD
  We’ll gather and wrap up at Maryland’s most-urban cohousing community, a super-green project that recycled an existing 4-story building.

• Blueberry Hill
  Vienna, VA
  We’ll enjoy our lunches and tour this suburban community that helped save the farm that surrounds it from development.

• Takoma Village
  Washington, DC
  See the area’s first cohousing neighborhood, and the only one in the District of Columbia.

  Forming Communities you’ll get to meet as you check in, ride on the bus, and at the closing reception:

• DMV Commons
  Washington, DC & nearby
  This group is working to build a multigenerational co-op neighborhood in a walkable part of DC, Virginia, or Maryland. Site search is underway!

• Newark Area Cohousing
  Newark, DE
  A forming group is seeking members to co-create a community in the region’s smallest state.

• Altair EcoVillage
  Kimberton, PA
  This rural cohousing neighborhood in the greater Philadelphia region is getting ready to build your future home in a green senior community.

Plus meet pioneers from established and growing communities in the area that have homes for sale or room for you to be a part of them.

This is the ONLY bus tour scheduled for the Open House Weekend as part of National Cohousing Week in 2025.

Mid-Atlantic Cohousing’s bus tours always sell out. There’s always a long waiting list. Reserve your seat now.

We’ve done virtual “no-bus bus tours” in recent years, but there’s no substitute for in-person visits and meeting the people involved. It’s an event like no other, and we want you to be there! 🎉

Every registration to this event will be used to support the programs of Mid-Atlantic Cohousing, the regional organizer of this event. Acting together, we can build more cohousing in the region and support established communities, creating a brighter, more compassionate world for all.
