We're lucky to have an espalied apple tree along the side of our home. Our cohousing community has a variety of espalied fruit trees to help maximize space and production.🧵

Cohousing originated in Denmark around the 1970s. There are nearly 200 communal living communities in the U.S. today, including Skagit Commons, a cohousing community for people over the age of 55.
