The Café is the village community hub for hanging out, finding co-regulation, and meeting others in The Haven.

There are three main ways we connect, communicate, and create together:

The Activity Feed

Think of this as our digital social space, with familiar social media features but without the algorithms, ads, or anger. It’s where you can share quick updates, deep reflections, links to things you’re enjoying, images, and photos of creations, and discussion questions. Make yourself at home and use your feed however you like.

Live Gatherings

You are invited to join different live sessions that embody the rhythm of Haven village life. We have different types of regular and one-off community events. The Live Cafe and Journal Circle happen most weeks and are hosted by me (Andy) or Tuula. We also meet in The Kota most Sundays for different things (e.g. Phrase Maze, Krafty Kota, New Zine Watch Party, Book Club). Keep an eye on the event calendar to see what is coming up. Click on the meeting to see a description of the event.

The Zine

Our zine is published every couple of months. Coming To Our Senses is a creative expression of what’s moving through the community in response to a theme (which we open up in the Phrase Maze). The zine features writing, artwork, sound, and reflections from members, all gathered around a shared theme. It is both a record and a celebration of the ideas, questions, and stories alive in the community as it is right now.
