From www.ic.org/directory/la-querencia-san-diego/:
La Querencia Collective and Co-Housing Community was formed in 2013 near downtown San Diego, California. We are working together as a pseudo-family to evolve our own interpersonal skills and co-create more healthier, ecologically-rooted ways of living. We value honesty, accountability, mutualism, connection to the earth, non-consumerism, creativity, fun, alternative economics, and simplicity. Other goals include being a space that is empowering, a source for our own personal development and a reprieve from larger structural oppression, a resource for mutual aid, a life close to the land, a place lush with plants and food with supportive, generous residents to share burdens and multiply joys.Our community is on a third acre of land with 4 units, set up as private rooms and shared-use common areas outside the houses and in the kitchen, baths and living rooms within the houses. There is also a garden space, bicycle space, tools and multi-purpose workshop, a deck, fire pit, entertaining space, outdoor kitchen, float tank, outdoor shower (coming soon) plus other leisure and sustainability features.
We, like many worldwide, are trying to figure out how to have different relationships with each other and the world. We sense the urgency and couldn’t wait any longer to start working towards living the dream!
