WHO WE ARE

We are building a community where neighbors become friends

Our group is welcoming and open. We value connection and sustainability, acceptance and diversity, health and wellness, and fun and support. Some of us are single, some married, some working, some retired. We have no common political or religious orientation, only a​ ​shared desire to live in a neighborhood that fosters an active and supportive community life.

OUR VISION

Heartwood Commons is a vibrant, welcoming, intentional community whose members acknowledge and celebrate our connection to one another and nature in a caring, compassionate, respectful, and sustainable environment.
