We live in a small, progressive community in western Washington State. It is located at the southern-most end of Puget Sound and is a short drive from the Cascade and Olympic Mountains. It is centrally located one hour from Seattle and two hours from Portland, Oregon.
In this state capital city, the combination of state government and a liberal university (Evergreen State College) makes for a great mix of people, each broadening their outlook by living with the other. It is the home of the Procession of the Species, an annual celebration of Earth Day to honor its diverse inhabitants. Olympia has a large Farmers Market, and in Washington, it is second in size only to Pike Place Market in Seattle.
About Our Property
The future home of Woodard Lane Cohousing is on a 2.9 acre parcel within the city limits on Olympia's west side. The property border is on a deep ravine that provides a permanent green belt on one side of the land.
Here is a map showing our location.
Entrance to the property is from Thomas St.
- turn west on Woodard Ave.
- At the dead-end of Woodard Ave. the property entrance is on the right. (There is no Woodard Lane (yet).)
Please be respectful of the neighbors!
