Together…?

 

What effects do crises have? More egoism? Solidarity? Razorblades on your elbows? Probably all of the above. But we are certain, that in times like these, togetherness is crucial to address the challenges. And that is why we want to inspire you: With stories of people, who are successful because they are working with appreciation and respect for people and nature.

With ideas and products, that use resources mindfully. With background information on Fairtrade and work at eye level. And by being optimistic that if we stick together, we will “make it work somehow”. Certainly.

Change of perspective.

Our biggest asset: Confidence.

New year – new luck? Definitely. Optimism and confidence are our best and most important resources – that is at least what we at Mount Hagen believe. Here, you can read why we think that and what can be achieved by it.

The courage to be chaotic.

The yard as a green retreat? The balcony as a vacation spot? For most of the hobby gardeners the terrasse, balcony, or yard serve as an extension of the living room. Unfortunately, that often means that there is absolutely no room for bees, butterflies, and the like. Because they need a bit of wilderness. In this article, you find out how you can easily make that happen, while still keeping it “cozy”.
