ZephyrValley Community  Cooperative is a rural co-housing community with 11 members and 10 kids on  500 acres of stunningly beautiful land in the hill country of southeast Minnesota. The Coop,  with 8 original members, bought the land in 1994. We make decisions  affecting the Coop as a whole in consensus. There are seven individual homes; sites  for six more homes, a common house; two barns and several outbuildings.  There are four ponds, including one for swimming; a creek; wetlands;  pastures; bluff & forest lands and 80 acres of land in crops farmed  organically. We hope this Guide will  answer many of your questions about living here and joining the Zephyr  Valley Community Cooperative. Thanks for your interest.  If you'd like to  visit us or would like to contact us,  please read Visiting Zephyr .           [ZVCC] [Members] [Values]  [Governance] [Ownership] [Financial ] [The Land] [Things to do] [Earn a living]  [Visiting Z] [Joining] [Photo 1]  [Photo 2]
