Let’s get to work!
New Year. New resolutions. And plenty of challenges. In 2022 things won’t stay the same. 2022 is about change – at least that’s what we deeply hope. And that is why the first topic we want to focus on in our theme year is courage. The courage to drive change, to change things for the better. For yourself. For all of us.
We want to inspire you. With reportages about people who had the courage to turn their life upside down. With ideas on how to reduce waste, that aren’t even that hard to integrate into your everyday life. With great initiatives that we want to promote together with you. And of course, with stories about coffees. With this, we are brewing ourselves a delicious cup of coffee and then: Let’s get to work!

Goodbye old habits and beaten paths.
Sometimes, all it takes is a little inspiration – Here, we want to inspire you. And we will. We will take you with us on the journey to meet the many challenges of 2022. With a lot of optimism, ideas, and: Courage.

Funny looking things…
Nothing new, but fabulous: Rescuing funny looking vegetables that do not meet the standard. It saves CO2 and supports the farmers. We think that‘s perfect.

“The soil belongs to everyone.”
About the courage to think differently. And to put economical interests last. A coffee with Maritta Stille, founder of the Aktion Kulturland foundation.

The courage to try something new
Does a present for an 18th birthday always have to be something fancy (or expensive)? Is it not possible to just cherish this special event (or also other ones) and celebrate? It is. Quite possible actually, as we recently learned here in our editorial department. Welcome to our world.
