Our Mission and Goals Marsh Commons Overview All About Us Project History Links Contact Us Marsh Commons is a developing community of diverse households living in clustered housing with shared common space, indoors and out. It is our hope, by developing a cohesive community, to enrich each person's life. Marsh Commons is based on the shared values of respect for each individual and for the land. Our long-term plans include a greenhouse, sauna, children's play loft, and a hot tub and garden on the roof of the Common House. We feel that this type of mixed-use space will bring members of the cohousing group in closer contact with the larger community and afford some of us the opportunity of short commutes.
