"Housing co-ops require a shift in how you conceptualize your role as a tenant. There are some cultural changes that need to happen in terms of developing the perceptions of people who might live in community-led housing, says Nic Bliss of the Confederation of Co-operative Housing. He talks of the challenge in gearing people up to take responsibility for their own homes. Housing co-op life isn’t for everyone: there’s a time commitment, with members expected to muck in wit...h upkeep. Slater jokes she only got accepted into Sanford because she really loves admin, while Zindiani tells me voluntary participation saves 20/20 40,000 a year in running costs. It’s almost like having a part-time job on top of whatever else you’re doing, says Percival. Decisions need to be made communally, which can take time. Slater’s building has mice, which means someone has to put forward a motion to get pest control in; then the members debate it." See more

Join us at Nickel City Housing Cooperative: Ol' Wondermoth on Friday, March 1st for board game night as part of the National Day of Unplugging! From 7 - 10 pm, we'll be talking about our relationships to technology and playing board games! About the National Day of Unplugging: We're taking a day to #unplug from our technology and connect to each other and our environment IRL (In Real Life). From sundown Friday, March 1 to sundown Saturday, March 2 we're going to put our phones, computers and devices away (as much as we're able) to eat, drink, walk, bike, exercise, meditate, reflect, enjoy nature and each others' company.

We couldn't agree more!
