Compost Happens - Dallas

The City of Dallas invites you to learn the science of composting.

By composting we can reduce the amount of waste we send to the landfill.

In fact, at least 30% of the material sent to the landfill is organic and could be composted at home.

Composting at home is easy!

Join us for a free class to learn how you can compost in your own backyard.

Spaces are limited so please call us now at 214-671-8134 to reserve your seat.

Dallas Cohousing Hanukkah Party

Please join us to celebrate Hanukkah. (Goys welcome!)

We'll provide roast chicken, sweet potato latkes, applesauce and sour cream. Please bring another treat to share.

Describing New York City's first cohousing project, a New York Times article said cohousing speaks to people who want to own a home but not feel lost in an impersonal city. That's how we feel.

And we want to live sustainably, with a smaller carbon footprint. To know our neighbors, grow some of our own food and use our united buying power to support local farmers and dairies. We want to model a more resilient way of life for the DFW metroplex.

We want to live in a diverse community, with old and young, singles and couples, varied backgrounds.
