Virtual Tour of Intentional Communities
Thinking about joining an intentional community? Curious to learn about communities from them directly? Want to peak inside community living and get your questions answered?
The Virtual Tour of Intentional Communities is the event experience for you! Each month we bring together a variety of new and established intentional communities — ecovillages, cohousing, shared homes, coliving spaces and more — to present about about their community in an interactive setting. You’ll experience photos, videos, captivating stories, and insightful dialogue among the presenting communitarians. Plenty of time is included for you to ask your burning questions about community living. Come travel to communities around the world without leaving your armchair!
What you’ll get from the Virtual Tour experience:
- Deeper insight into the lives of communitarians and the places they live
- Inspiration to get you excited about your own community journey
- Information about housing and membership opportunities
- Network building with presenters and fellow participants
- A sense for what’s alive in the communities movement right now
Presenting Communities
Canticle Farm

They are located in East Oakland, CA, acting as a platform for the Great Turning, one heart, one home, and one block at a time. They are working to heal and transform historical and present-day trauma across difference, especially that of race, gender, class, religion and age.

They are located on 48 private, wooded and very beautiful acres, just two miles from downtown Nevada City, California. They have several residence cabins, a Common House with shared facilities & gathering space, a large garden space, hiking trails, swimming pond, an art & workshop space and a nice solar power array.
Bristol Cohousing

I am constantly impressed by the down-to-earth practicality of the FIC workshops combined with the philosophical questions that are so vital for us to explore.
