Herron Cove Community is a group of ~7-10 people (there’s some space variables and transition in this moment) living together on 2.6 acres.
We make decisions through sociocratic consent. We grow food, host events and weave community.
Currently three of the community members are co-operative members.
We envision a world where land and home are collectively stewarded by cooperative-based communities and we hope to co-create this world by demonstrating and sharing a model of harmonious co-stewardship through the evolution of co-living systems and the stewarding of a community space for our cooperative memers and our broader community.
To become a community member, there’s an application, in person meeting and then a consent process in the Community Circle. There is a default 3 months trial period for new community members.
To become a cooperative member, there’s a more involved application, in person meeting(s) and consent process in the Coop Members Circle. There is a minimum 3 month trial period. Cooperative members must also be consented as community members by the community circle.
