The Seedpod Co-op, located in Field’s Corner, Dorchester, has one room
available starting April 1st

Seedpod  Co-op is an active,community of 13 people: musicians, dancers,
techies, activists, bakers, thinkers, carpenters, and more. We share,
which means you get lots of extras! The house includes tons of common
space: a kitchen, a spacious dining room, two living rooms, an office, and
six porches. Rent will be $590 per month for the room that is available.
$50/month in utilities gets you wireless internet, telephone, and a free
washing machine as well as the usual heat and electricity. $135/month gets
you a six prepared meals a week and a kitchen that's always stocked with
food.

We share vegetarian meals, purchase our food collectively, share household
chores, hold bi-weekly house meetings, and are dedicated to community &
social justice.

Our house is owned by Boston Community Cooperatives (BCC), a non-profit
organization formed to build community through cooperative living, member
education, neighborhood improvement and collective action. Members
participate in a no-equity model (meaning you don’t make money off it) of
communally-owned, democratically controlled and affordable residential
co-operatives. Our first co-op house started 7 years ago around values of
vegetarianism, open communication, communal ownership, environmental
sustainability, creativity and social justice. The Seedpod Co-op opened in
the summer of 2005, so we’re still relatively new and it’s an exciting
time to get involved!
