There is a lovely house known as the Gingerbread Box located in NE PDX looking for a fourth member or a one month subletter. We are a collective house committed to creating a radical alternative to the society we live in by sharing a space that is safe, open, cooperative, and fun. Our home is the place we find support, grow in, watch films, share meals, have political meetings, cut hair, sow clothes, drink hot chocolate, and chat about our lives. We buy/ share food together. We focus on buying organic and local food first. This means buying from co-ops and directly from farmers.We tend to buy things in bulk and go for as little packaging as possible.We factor in food with our rent so the base line of rent is $300 but can be more depending on food. We also share all the bills (this includes wireless internet). We have house check in meetings at least once a month. Each person is responsible for a weekly chores and cooking one meal a week.We make decisions together.The idea is to build something that works for all of us.As we move into spring we are excited about growing food, going on house trips, and finding new house projects. We are looking for a housemate who is interested in being a part of our community. Our house is off of NE Dekum and MLK. We are by the 75, 6, 8 bus lines and within a 10 minute walk of the MAX. Is this what you are envisioning in a house? if it is, email us more about yourself, your experience living in a collective home, and what you are looking for in a house. thanks the gingerbread box
