Stone Soup Cooperative
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stone Soup Cooperative is a housing cooperative created in Chicago, Illinois in 1997. A collective of activists working and living in Chicago began renting a former convent with the goal of creating an intentional community for "Joy and Justice."
The cooperative began by renting the Ashland house and sharing it between its 18 members. In 2000, Stone Soup expanded with an additional 11 members and the purchase of a large house on Leland St., near the original building. By the spring of 2002 a third building on Hoyne St., on Chicago's south side, was added to the collective, housing a further 7 members.
