Acequia Jardin is a co-housing community inspired by both traditional New Mexican villages and close-knit “pocket neighbourhoods.” Our name comes from the Spanish acequia (irrigation ditch) and jardin (garden) and was chosen because of the historic Duranes Acequia that waters our community garden.
Through a combination of neighbourhood design and shared values of simplicity and living in harmony with the environment, we’ve created a community of ten households that encourages interacting with neighbours and looking after each other.
