Rocky Brook Cohousing, a new community initiative, is set to launch with its first public meeting on May 15th, 2025. This innovative housing concept aims to create a new community-oriented neighborhood in Hightstown, New Jersey. Rocky Brook Cohousing will be a custom-built neighborhood co-designed by its residents with a focus on fostering community. The project draws inspiration from successful cohousing models across North America and Europe, which have shown to enhance quality of life and promote sustainable living.

The May 15th kick-off event provides an opportunity for interested individuals and families to learn more about the cohousing concept and the specific plans for Rocky Brook Cohousing. The presentation will begin at 6:30 pm at the First Presbyterian Church of Hightstown.
