Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Silver EcoCommunity’s demise, need info on cooperative households

[Alice Alexander (alicecohous]

Joanie, I agree with John; please stay on the list and share your

I also encourage you to consider talking with Robert Jenkens at National

Good for you for hanging in there with creative approaches to intentional
community.
