Laurel Street neighbor Caroline Cox has written a column in support of the Richmond CoHousing group for their website. It describes a family-oriented promotional program at the Richmond Public Library.
Caroline is a long time resident of Oregon Hill, vegan cheesemaker, and gingerbread planner extraordinaire. She is also one of the founding members of Richmond Cohousing – if you’d like to hear about how our group came to be, she’s a great one to ask!
