The LivinginPeace Project in Karamea, New Zealand began in 2004 and aims to incorporate the elements of Travel, Art, Education and Permaculture into a sustainable business.

Karamea is at the top of the West Coast of the South Island and is like a little geographical island paradise in the Kahurangi National Park. The climate is warm year-round and the region is blessed with fertile soils, plentiful rainfall and lots of sunshine. Almost any crop can be grown there, including bananas.
