Mission: We are an inclusive community focused on social action and a connection to nature.

From www.ic.org/directory/pacific-gardens-cohousing-community/:


Pacific Gardens completed construction in September, 2009. One unit is still available for sale.

We have 4.37 acres on the Chase River in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island, British Columbia. With a view of Mount Benson (and sunsets), the property is a delightful piece of country in the city covered with trees, a heritage orchard, seasonal pond and wildflowers.

Our 25-unit building is designed to maximize green space and provide the best opportunities for social interaction. Our common house includes a kitchen, dining room, lounge, office, children's playroom, craft room, woodworking shop, exercise room and soundproof room for music practice, plus two guest rooms.

Each unit is self-contained with its own kitchen and individually-owned (strata-titled condominium), and includes shared ownership of the land and common amenities. They range in size from one-bedroom to three-bedroom-and-den.

We currently have one three-bedroom-and-den unit for sale at $409,000 CAD. However, we may also have other units available in the future, so please contact us to find out if we have a home that's right for you.

Although we are located in the city, Pacific Gardens is a haven of serenity. Down by the river in the forest of fir trees, you can imagine yourself far away from civilization; yet we are within a block of the bus and are minutes by car or cycle from downtown and local shopping. An elementary school, a high school, and Vancouver Island University are within walking distance.

Pacific Gardens Cohousing is committed to using non-toxic products, is non-smoking and scent-free, and has been built to the LEEDS gold standard.

The community is multigenerational and inclusive of all people who genuinely care about living in harmony with the Earth and each other.
