Our Village
Tiny Homes
About
Tiny homes in our community will be arranged around a central courtyard with seating areas, providing residents with a place to relax and socialize. Our model will employ cost-effective, eco-friendly, and sustainable housing. Each tiny house will contain a kitchen, washroom, bedroom and living space. 20% of our homes will be modified accessible units.
Community Hub

-
A large open space for young adult program facilitation, gatherings, events, and other communal activities
-
A well-equipped kitchen for cooking classes, shared meals, and social events
-
Meeting rooms for community organizations and support services
Community Gardens
The community gardens provide residents with the opportunity to cultivate their own vegetables, herbs, and flowers. The gardens are designed with raised beds and accessible pathways to accommodate residents of all abilities.

Hobby Farm, Barn and Workshop
About
Providing pet therapy to our residents is the key purpose for developing a hobby farm as we are not an agricultural operation. The hobby farm containing fenced off areas and a barn will be constructed on the property for workshop space and housing smaller livestock.
