Borland Green is a cohousing community
located in Pittsburgh’s East Liberty neighborhood and centered around Borland Garden. Borland Garden has a native food forest, small fruit orchard, rain garden with a cistern that collects rain from our roofs, lawn, annual vegetable beds, and herb gardens.
We are an intergenerational open and affirming community for all people. We have worked for many years to build a space of mutual flourishing for one another and the neighborhood beyond the set of houses surrounding the garden.
We have had some beautiful experiences, such as the Bonfire Reading Series and Art in the Garden’s transformative effects on so many children and adults—ourselves included.
We shape many of our garden activities around empowering neighborhood children to connect with the earth. We have many interests as individuals, and as a collective we believe in caring for ourselves, each other, and the earth.
