  The stay was everything all the other visitors had described it as. The room and bathroom was neat and clean. I travelled alone and Mr Laiju was there on call... read more and (Hidden by Airbnb) anytime I needed help. The food was absolutely delicious and Sushma and her husband were always on stand by to help and were more than happy to show me around. Keeping in mind they didn't speak Hindi or English they sure made efforts to communicate. It was an overall relaxing and enriching experience and a perfect getaway. Would highly recommend!

We loved our time here. If you’re somebody always desperate for activities then maybe this isn’t for you but if you love being in nature and eating incredible food then this one is definitely one to recommend.

Thanks Mr Laiju and Co 🙂

  I had a great time in the Tgg farm.

Sushma and Hari are the sweethearts of the farm.
Its extremely rare to meet such pure souls and I feel... read more blessed to have met them in my life.
This surely feels like home the moment you enter and you are greeted by Sushma and Hari.

The food was so yum and feels homely at the same time.
We made bamboo straws,fresh juices from the fruits grown in the farm, cooking and a lot more.

I got to have,fresh coconut, mulberries, avacado, banana and rose apples.
I tasted white tea for the first time and now I am shifting to white from Green!
Hari helped me learn tree climbing.
I planted a clove tree 🙂
Had tea leaves plucking experience with some cute women.

Laiju Sir was available for me, encouraged me with everything I did and provided me with so many opportunities to explore in the farm.

Also, I love how the money you pay is utilized for the growth of the rural community.

I am a solo traveller. Auto driver Murli was there to pick me up and drop me to the bus stop late in the night waiting with me till I got into the bus.
I got to meet very warm and kind people in village.

There is so much to write about it, I would suggest you to just go and experience it yourself! It's a must have experience.

A big thanks to Laiju Sir, Hari, Sushma, Murli and all the lovely people who I interacted during my stay made me feel the world is so kind, warm and beautiful ❤

  Good place to visit, if you want to get away from the city environment and pollution.

  This place is very different from typical Airbnb stays. In a 4.5 acre farm with so many different kinds of fruits and trees and interesting birds, this will give you... read more a glimpse of how a minimalist life in a village would be. Laiju is a great and selfless soul. He is building a community of like-minded folks who want a slow life amidst nature. Highly recommended to try it out. You will not be disappointed.

  The farmstay was perfect for those looking to be alone with nature and escape the hustle and bustle of the city. The surrounding area was calm and serene, providing a... read more much-needed break from the noise and chaos of everyday life.

One of the highlights of our stay was the excellent Kerala style food served at the farmstay. Despite the rustic setting, the accommodations were simple but comfortable.The room was clean and cozy, and it also featured a great verandah, which was perfect for enjoying the beautiful natural surroundings. Laiju ji was very friendly and welcoming, and he made sure that we had everything needed to make our stay comfortable.

Overall, I would highly recommend this Airbnb farmstay to anyone looking for a peaceful, nature-filled escape. The food, atmosphere, and accommodations were all outstanding, and I can't wait to return for another stay.

  This is really what traveling is all about: exchanging ideas and thoughts, eating made-with-love local cuisine, feeling welcome and home in a community/a village far away from “home”... we’re more... read more than thankful that we had the opportunity to spend our Wayanad days on this special farm - breathing in fresh! air and rest resting our souls in pure nature. Please do not hesitate to stay here, dear fellow traveler 🙂 take your time to experience this beauty on earth and take it slow. Also: be prepared for a. lot. of. food. 😀

  Our stay at Green garden’s farm was great. Such a peaceful, serene accommodation. The room was clean and comfortable. Food is so homely and delicious. Laiju is extremely helpful... read more and helped us with other recommendations in Wayanad as well. Special thanks to Namita and Laiju, for inviting us for lunch, it was delicious!
We will definitely go back 🙂

  Mr. Laiju & team allowed for a concoction of nature and homeliness unforgettable for me in my time of inner discovery, which I am deeply grateful for… 🧘‍♂️

  My girlfriend and I stayed at Laiju’s place for our trip in wayanad and it was one of our best experiences together. The place is far from the busy streets... read more and is instead located in nature. This allows a lot of opportunity to disconnect and live much more simply. The hosts were super caring and helpful always responding to any questions or concerns that we had. The nature surrounding the airbnb is very lush providing many things to do and see. The airbnb also provided a food option of three meals a day and each of them were extremely fresh and delicious. I highly recommend Laiju’s place to someone looking for a raw and beautiful experience in some of the best nature India has to offer.

  Superb place to connect with nature. It’s a heaven on earth if you like nature and peace. Surrounded by lush green tea gardens and fruit trees. Live stocks like goats,... read more cows, chickens, ducks, and what not. Above all the care takers, Shushma and her husband Hari. We became so connected in a week’s time that it looks difficult to forget them all. Best place to do creative things like writing a book in peace or composing a music and do work from home with doodle ( no WiFi). Good place with basic facilities with a good price. Excellent home made food with 90% home grown vegetables and fruits. Nature lovers don’t think, go ahead. Have a nice time.

  A great stay with plantation all around.. It was comfortable for me. Totally recommended!

  The Green Gardens farm is a quaint little place that's just ideal for a short break from the city. Its clean and organised and ideal for long walks along the... read more tea gardens in and around the farm. Biba, the caretaker is lovely and her food is simple, homely but wonderfully cooked.

I went there for a solo trip and I got exactly what I was looking for. I never felt unsafe there. Mr Laiju and his wife are extremely warm and welcoming people and they took care of every little detail.

  I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place. It is total magic. It will open your heart and mind. It’s totally safe, very tranquil and private, and an... read more all-around retreat-like environment. The flora and fauna are vast and interesting, there are fun critters running around the farm if you’re still enough to wait for them. The room was cools be quiet and spacious, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was big! Laiju and his family were very helpful in setting up trips to town and helped me with everything I needed. I was traveling totally solo, and I couldn’t have felt safer honestly. And of course, my two sweet loves, Hari and Sushma, worked on the farm everyday and we became fast friends. They are both such gems, and were extremely accommodating. They showed me so much love and kindness, the language barrier really stopped mattering after a while. Oh and The food was absolutely delicious and fresh—like super fresh.

There are trails to walk throughout the farm, not to mention some lovely little village roads to run around. You will get lost in the vast array of fruit trees and crops. And if you’re lucky, Laiju will sell you some fresh coffee and black pepper to take home. Don’t miss your chance to do the pepper dance, either—it’s legendary.

Please do yourself a favor and stay here. Check out the organization, give it a go, and let your soul decide. It knows the way!

  Look no further for a down to earth, untouched beauty and a fantastic stay experience. Come here ready to do absolutely nothing, forget everything and be at peace.

While... read more this may come across as a Resort to any person first looking at this listing, it is far from the same. This is an out and out Farm Stay. Devoid of any commercial undertaking (except for the Room which you’ll be staying in), this is simply a breathtakingly predominant Tea farm with lush greenery surrounding it. A Trip to this wonderful location is truly worth it for any Indian looking to escape from the hustle and bustle of the City, clear the mind and detox. And for any Foreigners who want an insight into Tea Plantation and the best Organic Farm Practices at the moment in India, this is a perfect place for learning, unwinding and a simple vacation.

This turned out to not just be a simple stay vacation, it was a very educational and informational trip as well. You can learn to pluck Tea Leaves, taste fresh honey just taken out of the Beehive, taste fresh organic Mangoes as your dessert during lunch, try a passion fruit drink and ripe jack fruit if you’re lucky and it falls during your stay.

The term ‘Super Host’ would be an understatement for Mr. Laiju. He is a treasure trove of knowledge on Organic Farming & sustainable and ethical practices pertaining to it. Through the TGG Foundation and the self-help group they support (headed by Sushma), it is a wonderful outreach and support system they render to the persons employed at the farm. Mrs. Sushma, who manages the Farm, is an inspiration to all of us and a personification of hard work and dedication. She is also a fantastic Cook (although, be warned, it is predominantly Vegetarian & Egg based foods over here) and the 5 days I lived here was filled with simple farm produce based vegetarian foods. Also, the Tea made by her is simply fabulous. Some might find it difficult to communicate with her since she primarily speaks Malayalam but she makes a conscious effort to learn english and can communicate with you basically.

Every Rupee I have spent over here has been supported by Vouchers and receipts. Mr. Laiju also helped me out in arranging a Cab from and back to Kozhikode Airport, which worked out significantly cheaper than what other cab guys would have usually fleeced for the same, so do not hesistate to ping him once you reserve the listing.

Also, don’t miss out on the Full Body Massage offered by one of the members of the self-help group {at an additional fee of approximately ₹700 (when I took it)}. It is thoroughly relaxing and rejuvenating.

If you’re headed here, come with the most basic comfortable clothing (full hand and full track advisable because of the mosquitos at times), that book you’ve always wanted to read and the most relaxing instrumental music you like. Just relax and just hear the birds chirping away, the sound of insects, geese quacking and frogs croaking.

You won’t feel like going out for the first few days. And when you do go for your walks, just follow the road, you will come across some of the most beautiful views of other farms and flora. And please, please try to bring as few plastics here possible and do not throw them indiscriminately, for I have personally seen how most people have scattered everything from wrappers and bottles outside on both sides of the road.

There’s nothing much to do after around 7 o’clock since it becomes pitch dark outside, so it would be better to spend the first half of the day from 7AM - 7PM walking, reading outside etc. and keep your laptop binge watching and unavoidable work emails post 7PM.

In a time when we are accustomed to the fast-paced cosmopolitan life, it is necessary to unwind a little and come back to square one, which is exactly what I did and what exactly this place offers. I’d love to come back more often, not just for the pleasant weather and the wonderful surroundings, but also for the people here and to support wonderful ventures such as this.

Also, Kudos to Airbnb for prominently promoting such a wonderful listing in Wayanad, and for all the assistance through Ms. Roshawnda in extending the stay and co-ordinating with the Host when I requested for it.

  Wonderful stay at the Green Gardens farm. I stayed here solo and enjoyed the privacy and space to connect with nature. I felt safe.

Host Laiju and his wife... read more I cannot thank enough especially for helping me with transport and arranging some activities.

My advice would be to stay for at least 4 days ( more, weeks if you can) to connect with the place and relax. It is worth travelling to, but please ask Laiju on best way to get there as I took a awful sleeper bus that was quite traumatic! There are much better ways to get tho the farm.

Someone local cooked food for me three times a day which was wonderful and is also a great thing to do.

It is a place to relax and unwind and take walks. Highly recommended.

Bring books if you are in to them. And get up early 7 or even earlier, it’s a good time to sit outside.

  Staying at TGG was a highlight of our 2 month adventure travelling India. Laiju is an inspiring person who welcomed us into the foundation which we were eager to learn... read more about. The farm is peaceful and beautiful but more than that, it has a soul that will leave you wanting to return as soon as possible (or staying a lot longer than planned, if able to). Laiju organised wonderful activities which are unlike the touristy excursions you will have done elsewhere. Instead, they were focused on community and skill sharing, creating a unique atmosphere which we loved being a part of. The staff are great and the food was INCREDIBLE. We cannot recommend this place enough.
We can’t wait to visit again and hope a lot of our friends and family will also get the opportunity to spend time at The Green Gardens Farm

  One of the best decision of 2021 was to visit Wayanad. We planned this trip to take a break from hustle bustle of city life and nothing could have been... read more better than THE GREEN GARDEN farm stay. We loved this place soo much that we decided to spend more time in the Lap of Mother Nature rather than visiting too many touristy places.

To talk about the hospitality that was shown by Mr Laiju including their staff, is way more than what we expected. Despite of Mr. Laiju's absence, his continuous effort of communicating and coordinating with staff made our stay and trip seamless and comfortable. We enjoyed farm grown fresh produce & delicious Kerala cuisine food cooked by Sushma. We got to know a lot about sustainable living practices and experiences with our interaction with Sushma and Hari.

A special thanks to Mr Laiju for an amazing birthday surprise arrangement for my spouse on her special day.

We are gonna cherish the memories of Wayanad journey with TGG Foundation for long time and looking forward to our next visit very soon.

In short, our 5 day stay at farm was full of new experiences, learning and moments which cant be described in words!

  This is one of those special experiences you'll cherish through life. The space allowed me to re-connect with myself, waking up to the sounds of birds, dew on the porch,... read more and fresh air. I'm grateful this place exists and thank Mr.Laiju for allowing me to experience this hidden gem.

  Peaceful stay, worth your time and money. Shushma and Hari were helpful, cooked delicious food. Met Laiju in person for dinner at RHM centre and had a great time, will... read more definitely recommend it.

  My wife and I had four wonderful days staying at the Green Gardens farm.
Lajiu kept following up with us till we reached the farm on the day of... read more arrival. He was also available on (Hidden by Airbnb) or a quick call if we need any information.

Care takers Sushma and Hari are just wonderful.

Sushma is an amazing cook. We loved the food served throughout our stay. Jackfruit seeds curry was my favorite. Sushma packed a few Jackfruit chips as well for our return journey.

Hari is an all rounder. He has amazing knowledge of the plants and trees in the farm.

The farm fruits are just delicious. We had avocados, Passion fruit, jackfruit, Pineapple, Guava, Carrots and the humble Banana.

The best part of the stay is the plant donation activity. We thoroughly enjoyed planting a Jamba plant.

The farm itself is a bio-diversity hotspot. I saw many new bird (close to 20) and plant species. Only regret I have is that I could not capture the birds. (Carry a good SLR camera if you love capturing birds and insects.) They are just vibrant. Whole day I was just listening to the sounds of these little birds.

There are very big nurseries close to the stay. If you enjoy visiting one, give it a try.

First day we found it a little difficult to adjust to the noise of Crickets. Got used to it from the second day.

It was a great decision to stay in the Green Gardens farm. Live close to the nature, soak in the sun, enjoy and relax your body and mind.

Looking forward to my next trip to the Green Gardens.

  lovely place for bird watching,solitude and very friendly staff.
