A

new housing co-operative

is sprouting up in Buffalo!

Who are we? We are a group of people looking to create a home centered on peacefulness, spirituality, music, good food, laughter, dancing, joy, silence, meditation, vegan/raw veganism (though we are open to all diets), a drug/alcohol free space, yoga, ... and new ideas!

Who are we looking for? Anyone interested in this sort of environment! We accept people of all faiths and walks of life.

Where in Buffalo? The west side, in the Elmwood area, in walking distance of public transit.

To contact us:

-Laura Jean Castelluzzo (716) 465-7408 or earthloveljc@yahoo.com
www.geocities.com/earthloveljc

-Melinda Wright mkwright@buffalo.edu

Ironically, the "Forever Friday's" event at B'Well has been cancelled. There is mention of starting up something similiar that happens on a weekly basis, but currently we do not have a regular potluck happening. Please be patient with us as we are going through lots of changes in members, and are still in the process of developing our inner structure - how we function as a coop, application process, etc. If you are interested in becoming involved in any way you can email us at bwellcoop@yahoo.com
Thanks so much.
Peace and Blessings,
Laura Jean
