We Have An Opening at Our Co-op
Seeking a housemate!
We are looking for one more housemate for our shared home in Berkeley’s charming Elmwood neighborhood: someone who is actively seeking community living and fits well with our current housemates. There are currently five full-time and one part-time members in our household.
As co-ops go, we are fairly light on structure and time commitments, and strong on shared values and consideration for each other.
Some maintenance or construction skills would be ideal, but are definitely not a requirement. This could include fix-it and maintenance tasks around the house, ongoing yard work, and arranging additional repairs as needed.
We get our name from the nearby Monkey Island Park. Whether the park ever had a monkey island is lost in the noise of Berkeley history.
