Portland Cohousing

Portland, Maine,

United States

Portland is amazing community, and we are excited to build even better neighborhoods! Portland has year-round farmers markets, a walkable downtown, a great music and arts scene, dozens of participatory sports leagues, and a strong ethic of local food, local business, and healthy living!

We have put up a website, www.portlandcohousing.org to be a clearinghouse for people to post profiles, state their intentions, promote events, and find each other to form multiple groups.
