Thanks Mr Laiju and Co 🙂

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

  As described by several others the place is unreal ,raw,natural and piece of heaven. If you really want to restore faith in goodness and want to know how the axis... read more of world is in balance then do experience this surreal place.

  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.

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

  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!

  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!

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
