Grandma Prisbrey's Bottle Village, Folk art environment in Simi Valley, California, US.

The site contains thirteen buildings constructed from discarded bottles, featuring walkways, sculptures, and shrines across a third-acre property.

Tressa Prisbrey initiated the construction of this glass bottle architecture in 1956 at age 60, continuing her work until 1972.

The structures incorporate thousands of recycled bottles and found objects from local landfills, representing early environmental consciousness through artistic expression.

Visitors can schedule guided tours through the Preserve Bottle Village organization to explore the buildings and learn about this California Historical Landmark.

The Pencil House contains Prisbrey's collection of 600 dolls and thousands of pencils gathered throughout her bottle collecting adventures.
