Welcome to our community!

We're the Greenhaus Community - a residential community in Newtown, Wellington. We used to live in a large house built in 1906, with lots of friends living near by. In February 2016, nearly all of us moved out of the big haus and we handed it over to our friends the INK Community. Now we live somewhere nearby in a multitude of different houses connected to one another.

We were first established some time around 1999 (check out our alumni list here). You can contact us at greenhausnz at gmail dot com.

Ever wondered where your tea comes from?

Ever wondered where your tea comes from? I have.

I emailed Twinings & Co Ltd earlier this week. They said that they didn't own any tea plantations and were in close collaboration with the Ethical Tea Partnership (ETP). They also said that ETP contracts PriceWaterhouseCoopers to conduct audits for ETP.

Check out the suitably vague description of the ETP programme at:

I am still waiting for responses from PriceWaterhouseCoopers and ETP..
