Tiny Home Communities

We believe that it is a human right to have a safe and secure place to live. We strive to build tiny homes in communities that will accommodate all needs. Our tiny homes will include multiple rooms, showers, washers, dryers and the option for rent/lease to own.

CommUNITY Gardens

Our communities will fight against food injustice by growing commUNITY gardens. All residents will have access to fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers.
