 Forming cohousing Community in the beautiful town of Quincy, in Plumas County California. Infinite outdoor recreation opportunities in Quincy and surrounding areas. Wondeful community and place to live.
We have a site identified (5.13 acres) within walking (and biking along the bike path) distance of downtown and all shopping! In order to move forward and make an offer on the site at this point, we need more committed members who want take risks, and be involved from the ground up!

Our group is also considering retrofit cohousing, and are on the look out for adjacent homes for sale in downtown Quincy!
