PLAN A VISIT

GREEN VILLAGE TOUR

Fancy seeing Green Village for yourself but can’t rent one of the houses through Airbnb? You can still book a personal tour of the community. These tours take visitors inside some of the houses, though which you visit will depend on which are rented out at the time.

BAMBOO FACTORY TOUR

Ibuku’s Bamboo Factory is where designers, craftsmen and builders use a combination of ancient and modern techniques to make bamboo fit for use in Ibuku’s gravity-defying structures. Book a visit and see for yourself how artisans treat, cut and and craft bamboo into furniture and, eventually, houses.

JOHN HARDY JEWELRY FACTORY

A short drive from Green Village is John Hardy’s jewellery factory, which you can visit by appointment to see the open-air design centre and watch jewellers craft earrings, necklaces and more from concept to completion.

KUL KUL FARM

A much-loved part of the Green Village compound is Kul Kul Farm, a permaculture farm run by Elora Hardy’s brother, Orin, that can be visited by appointment. The farm produces an assortment of healthy organic food and runs a variety of workshops on topics ranging from eco-friendly farming to making herbal medicines and essential oils.

CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS

For anyone looking to get hands-on, Ibuku also runs a series of practical classes, including a three-day-long bamboo construction workshop during which you get to design a bamboo architectural model and then build it at real scale. All tours can be booked through greenvillagebali.com
