It is too easy to eat something that leaves you feeling gross or to skip your regular movement practice. Sometimes it feels like you are alone in your journey. Imagine if you woke up in a house where a dozen other people were on the same page as you? How would your day be different? We are 9 people renting two floors of a triple decker apartment in Jamaica Plain that started September 2013. We are raising funds to purchase a property by next year (http://fundly.com/sunrise-coop-gathering-in-healthy-living) through Boston Community Cooperatives (http://bcc.coop/). Our house includes students, musicians, artists, scientists, researchers, and non-profit workers. The eight of us range in age from ten to late forties.We go in together on paleo-friendly food. So far we have ordered a cow from a friendly farmer and signed up for two shares of a fish CSA and a veggie CSA. </div> </div> </div> 42.321874 -71.108150 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 13:41:07 +0000 Gabe Baldwin 2042 at http://bostoncoops.org Maple Syrup House- Providence, RI http://bostoncoop.net/bostoncoops/community/maple-syrup-house-providence-ri <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-basic"><legend>Basic Info</legend><div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-year-of-founding"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Founded:&nbsp;</div> 2012 </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-population"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Size:&nbsp;</div> 6 </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-geo-location"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Location:&nbsp;</div> Providence </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-filefield field-field-cmty-img"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <img class="imagefield imagefield-field_cmty_img" width="450" height="600" alt="" src="http://bostoncoop.net/bostoncoops/sites/default/files/May2013%20009.JPG?1375894479" /> </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> <div class="form-item"> <label>Description: </label> We are an anti-capitalist, queer-friendly collective house that seeks to create a sustainable and self-sustaining way of life. </div> <p>We are an anti-capitalist, queer-friendly collective house that seeks to create a sustainable and self-sustaining way of life.</p> Wed, 07 Aug 2013 16:56:24 +0000 azar 1283 at http://bostoncoops.org Moishe Kavod House http://bostoncoop.net/bostoncoops/community/moishe-kavod-house <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-basic"><legend>Basic Info</legend><div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-year-of-founding"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Founded:&nbsp;</div> 2005 </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-population"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Size:&nbsp;</div> 4 </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-geo-location"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Location:&nbsp;</div> Allston/Brighton </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-filefield field-field-cmty-img"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <img class="imagefield imagefield-field_cmty_img" width="300" height="225" alt="" src="http://bostoncoop.net/bostoncoops/sites/default/files/165winthrop.jpg?1359225183" /> </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> <div class="form-item"> <label>Description: </label> Moishe Kavod House is a vibrant, home-based Jewish community for people in their 20s and 30s dedicated to tikkun olam, the repair of the world. </div> <p>By integrating arts, learning, Jewish spiritual practice, and social justice work, we strive to create a welcoming Jewish community that is personally meaningful and deeply engaged with the world.</p> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-org"><legend>Organizational Info</legend><div class="field field-type-link field-field-cmty-url"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Website URL:&nbsp;</div> <a href="http://www.kavodhouse.com/" title="visit the external site for this community">http://www.kavodhouse.com/</a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-ca-phone field-field-cmty-phone"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Organization Phone:&nbsp;</div> 1 (206) 218.7616 </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-nutshell"> <div class="field-label">In a Nutshell:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> Goals of Moishe Kavod House Create an inclusive community of young Jews and activists through Shabbat dinners, social action, Jewish learning, and the arts. Connect the Jewish community with social action and ‘world repair’ tikkun olam work. Train and develop young Jewish leaders to build community, organize social action work, and run Jewish programming. About Our Name “Eizehu mechubad? Hamechabed et haBriot. “Who receives honor/kavod? The one who treats all beings with kavod.” Pirkei Avot [Sayings of the Ancestors] 4:1 We are called ‘Moishe’ because we are part of the international Moishe House network, which provides meaningful experiences to Jewish young adults worldwide. At the Moishe Kavod House, we seek to treat all with honor, recognizing the unique talents each person has to share. Through this kavod, young people are empowered to strengthen both the Jewish community and local social activism. Our Core Values Inclusive We believe communities are stronger when they include people from many backgrounds. Jewish We believe the Jewish tradition offers meaningful lessons and rituals that can deepen our lives and guide our work for justice. We welcome Jews from across the religious spectrum. Partnerships between denominations of all kinds are key to making a better world. Progressive We care about social justice and the environment, and believe change is possible when we work together. Leadership Development Oriented We believe each person has something to offer, and that everyone can learn to be a leader who makes our community stronger. Local and Tangible We work on service projects and organizing campaigns that directly impact the Boston community and environment. Replicable We hope our work can serve as a model for similar houses around the country. </div> </div> </div> Sat, 26 Jan 2013 18:28:49 +0000 helen 863 at http://bostoncoops.org Murray Hill collective http://bostoncoop.net/bostoncoops/community/murray-hill-collective <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-basic"><legend>Basic Info</legend><div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-year-of-founding"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Founded:&nbsp;</div> 2013 </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-population"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Size:&nbsp;</div> 6 </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-geo-location"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <div class="field-label-inline-first"> Location:&nbsp;</div> Roslindale </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-filefield field-field-cmty-img"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <img class="imagefield imagefield-field_cmty_img" width="800" height="600" alt="" src="http://bostoncoop.net/bostoncoops/sites/default/files/IMG_1499.JPG?1338061268" /> </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> <div class="form-item"> <label>Description: </label> Owners of 4 bedroom Craftsman Bungalow invite people with creative energy and capital to co-create a collective urban homestead.
