Kotare Village
Kotare Village is a self-reliant eco-village based on permaculture principles in rural New Zealand's Northern Hawke's Bay.
It will be home for 50 families and the Koanga Institute's Centre for Regenerative Living. It is currently looking for like-minded people who want to support a shared dream of embracing a regenerative future through independent village living, local economies and co-evolution.
“When we heard about Kotare it sounded very much like they’d already done a lot of the work we were trying to do, such as setting up a legal structure and finding land. It ticked quite a few boxes we liked. We weren’t looking to go rural, but we decided to give it a try.”
