The EcoVillage at Ithaca has been a newsworthy place for it’s entire 20 year history. Today, it gets front page coverage because it has a 20 year history. Check it out, on the Ithaca Journal.
“In July, Leaf moved to EcoVillage of Ithaca, where the e-mail list spreads her requests for spices, milk, a ride downtown, and for furniture on a daily basis. More often than not, the request is met with eight to 10 replies…
The quick response to requests for help is one of the many perks of living in a cohousing neighborhood, Leaf has found. She enjoys hearing the sound of children playing outside her door, of living sustainably, and of course, having virtually anything she needs at the tip of her fingers.” - Judy Leaf
