About us

We are a community of 9 people looking for a new housemate and project member. we are open to couples. We live in a mixed-use building near Fruitvale. We are people of diverse backgrounds, genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and personalities. We are mostly people of color, but we are open to difference. We are a mostly vegetarian household that shares food, space, community, respect, work, and good times.

The home

The room for rent is medium-sized with plenty of built-in storage space and natural light. Rent is $465 per month (utilities average about $30/month per person), and move-in deposit (fully refundable) is $525. We share a kitchen and common space in a commercial storefront, and our living spaces are upstairs in more private settings.

The project

The focal point of our project is a 5,000 square foot lot that we have transformed into a productive garden for ourselves as well as for educational programs and community workshops in sustainable living practices (e.g. food justice, nutrition, composting, grey-water treatment etc.).

What we look for and offer

Because we are both a home and a project, a room in this space asks a greater commitment of time and effort than many other households, but comes with the returns of being part of an incredible space to live, a beautiful organic garden, the chance to create projects galore, and an urban community involved in, inspired by, and learning about environmentally and socially conscious living.

Come by our open house

the second sunday of every month from 12pm to 4pm.
