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.

The Garden






I (Hannah) haven't looked at the blog for a wee while, but today I noticed there was still an entry saying that nothing was growing in the garden. I am happy to say that this is no longer the case. We are still, by many standards, novice gardeners but we have been really enjoying growing and eating our home grown veges.

Also, the other night I was over at my folks place in Crofton Downs so Dad and I went for a wee lookey in the Williams Garden Centre dumpster. I was very happy to find lots of pretty things to plant, sadly nothing edible, but I'll settle for some free flowering plants to brighten the place up (see the petunia). I'm keen to check out what other garden centres are throwing out...

Nic and I have also found that tyres are really are good for growing things in, we are looking forward to eating beans, tomatoes, basil and celery (that's if nothing kills them first) grown inside their free rubber gardens.
