Green Village is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP)[5] located within portions of both Harding Township and Chatham Township in Morris County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[6] It is located just north of the Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge. It is named after Ashbel Green, former president of Princeton University.

Green Village has its own post office and fire department,[7] as well as a plant nursery known as The Farm at Green Village, a deli, a Methodist church, and a gas station. Additionally, a number of residents maintain farms and sell produce (including pumpkins, tomatoes, watermelons), eggs, and firewood. Green Village principally consists of three streets, namely Green Village Road, Meyersville Road, and Britten Road. Subject to an ongoing surveying controversy, it may include a portion of Woodland Road.
