Rimba Jimbaran, the new resort in Bali, has planted 50,000 trees.
The luxury resort, which is the Ayana Resort & Spa’s sister property, is already located in a forest setting. But it has added to this natural backdrop by planting thousands more trees in its 77 hectares of grounds.
“Five years ago, when the ‘seeds were planted’ for the idea of a new hotel at Ayana, our farmers planted 40,000 fast-growing albesia ‘silk’ trees at Ayana’s farm in central Bali,” said Rimba’s project director, Wayan Widhiada.
“Now, some of those trees have been used at Rimba, and we have replanted at the farm to replace them, as part of our commitment to a greener Bali. In addition, we have planted 10,000 trees around Rimba’s grounds to help further offset our carbon footprint.”
Aside from albesia trees, which will grow to full maturity within five years, the resort’s farm also produces pineapples and oranges and coffee beans, which are offered on the resort menus.
