Meet a diversity of communities during the Virtual Tour of Communities. From secular to spiritual, urban and rural, forming and established — get a vibrant taste of the communities movement without leaving your armchair!
What you get from the Virtual Tour experience:
Our diverse group is inclusive and friendly, consisting of individuals from various backgrounds and stages of life.
We come from all over, with a range of experience and skills including design, finance, green building, horticulture, and more. At Prairie Hill, located in Iowa City, Iowa, families with young children are welcome, as cohousing provides an excellent environment for learning and growth. Children feel safe here, among caring neighbors.
Sociocratic by design, LBGTQ-friendly, multicultural, and dedicated to ecological sustainability, we share a common goal of creating a supportive and active community, without any specific political or religious affiliations.
This tour comes at an exciting time as Prairie Hill is accepting new members and now has two units available for purchase!

“This is my first exposure to intentional living situations. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the possibilities and the underlying thinking that informs this kind of living choice. The presenters were excellent. It was great to see the different settings and to hear the various questions related to these three living situations. Thank you so much for this presentation.”
-Leslie Slate
“Great introduction to Intentional Communities. I felt very encouraged to do more research. I felt like I entered into a group of family and friends with like values for humanity. It is nice not to feel so alone!”
-Chandra Marin
“Great photos and narratives about the philosophy and diversity of communities. I learned about thinks I didn’t know and was given the opportunity to ask all my questions, which were answered in a comprehensive manner.”
