Slideshow this Friday - focus on Common House Design
Mosaic Cohousing is sponsoring a slide show and presentation on cohousing at First Parish Church in Berlin Center on this Friday, August 5, 7:00-9:00 pm. Child care will be provided.
This will be an excellent opportunity to introduce people to the concept of cohousing and for interested people to get to know the Mosaic community. In addition to general information and slides on cohousing, there will be many slides on common houses in cohousing communities.
To reach First Parish from Rt 495, take exit 26 onto Rt.62 going west, toward Berlin. The church is on Rt 62, in the center of town, about 1.5 mi. west of Rt 495. Parking is along the triangle surrounding the church.

Picnic on our land!
On July 24th we all got together on our land in Berlin to have a picnic and to allow some folks their first look at the site in general. I had gone up the week before with the tractor as the fields were quite overgrown with late summer grass.
Despite the hot weather, we set up several sunshades and the kids had a grand time playing frisbee and exploring the trails. Beezy took those interested on a long trail hike around the edges of the property, while many others decided to walk the trails on their own, or just sit and socialize in the cool shade.
It was a great introduction to our land and what will be our new home.

SVT Presentation
Today during our General Meeting we saw a wonderful presentation by Brandon Kibbe of the Sudbury Valley Trustees.
This group is dedicated to land and nature conservancy in the Eastern rural Massachusetts area. They do some wonderful work helping keep openspace and habitats viable in the face of wide scale expansion in the area.
After other business was concluded, as is the norm, we had our regularly scheduled potluck dinner. We have quite the army of kids in our community, and the 'kids table' turns into quite the ruckus space, but it's all good. Since today was so warm, someone brought a nice watermelon, and there was much enjoyment from all involved.
