And the Winner is...

We have a Winner! And this winner is kind and funny who likes to dance, garden, read, sew and lose at pinochle (OK, maybe not so much the last one.) All hail Joyce — and her home-state UConn Huskies — for winning this year’s riveting Mulch Madness.

So the obvious question that remains is how will the suddenly sports-obsessed Elderberry community fill the void for another year. Well, this week is the Masters; we could have everyone pick a name of a golfer out of a bucket hat. The winner could receive some hideous plaid golf shorts. The possibilities are endless!

Thanks to all three of you who have followed along. It's been a fun ride, and we are already looking forward to MM24.

About Elderberry CoHousing

Elderberry is not your usual retirement community! Situated in a beautiful rural setting, we are an adult cohousing community and creative alternative to urban living. Our community of couples and individuals has a vision to live an active and interdependent life, to support life-long learning and growing, and to work together on activities of interest.

Self-created, self-managed and self-directed, all members have an equal voice in our consensus-based community decisions. We live in this community to learn and share our experiences with one another, our wider community, and our world.

Elderberry is for folks who want to live in the country, with the advantages of a close community and opportunities to play, eat and work together. The view from homes and the Common House is distinctly rural — rolling hills and fields, pastures and gardens, woodlands with hundred-year-old trees, barns and farmhouse, abundant wildlife, and a starry night sky unaffected by city lights.

Each townhome is a maximum of 1,200 square feet, and configured in duplexes and quadraplexes to preserve land, increase energy efficiency and encourage community among members.

Elderberry welcomes visits from those who may be interested in living with us. We invite you to explore our website, and contact us to learn more about our lovely community!
