A community shaped by its members
Sarcee Meadows is a non-profit, continuing housing co-operative. It operates to provide housing for its members, with housing charges supporting the costs of running and maintaining the community rather than generating profit.
Members help govern the co-op and shape its future. As households come and go, the co-operative continues, providing homes for successive generations of members.
Membership share purchase: $2,900
