Milagro means “miracle” in Spanish and it took many miracles for us to make our
dream community a reality. We’re proud to have planned and built an
award-winning cohousing community of twenty-eight, energy efficient, passive
solar, adobe homes on a 43-acre site in the Tucson mountains – just twelve
minutes from downtown Tucson, Arizona. And, we are committed to sustaining our
green design community in a manner that is friendly to people and the earth.
In an effort to create a more sustainable community, we’ve incorporated a number
of green features. We’ve clustered our homes to preserve more than ¾ of our
property in its natural state. We’ve built adobe brick homes with metal roofs
that are well insulated and energy efficient. We’ve oriented them to take
advantage of passive solar principles and equipped them all with solar hot water
heaters. Our landscaping features permaculture design and an emphasis on native
plants. We utilize a wetlands and underground irrigation system for wastewater
recycling.

Do we have a car pool organized. I would drive if I have some passengers to share gas cost. marylou.benigno@gmail.com
