Consuming with a good conscience

Coffee is a luxury. Yes. But, we have made a conscious decision to produce fairly paid organic and Demeter-certified coffee. Exclusively. Because this type of cultivation helps to improve soil quality, carbon dioxide capture and biodiversity. Because this way, we can provide small coffee farmers with a decent livelihood. Because we believe that companies need to assume responsibility. Only this way can consumption even start to make sense. And because only this way can we enjoy the resulting coffee. Do you feel the same?

ASPIRATION

Our values. Short. Concise. And above all: Binding

For an organic pioneer like Mount Hagen, it is not surprising that it works in a value-oriented way. But what seems so obvious and logical to us is far from it for consumers, customers, retailers, or competitors. So it’s time for the Mount Hagen added value.

ONLINE-SHOPPING

Eco goes online.

Isn’t it a contradiction in itself: Organic and digital? Do those “organic people” even know anything about e-commerce? And why should they? A new study by the Institute for Applied Ecology has discovered how sustainable and useful digital platforms can be. We have the details for you.

Commitment

Saving water with coffee?

Meanwhile everyone should be aware: Water is a very precious commodity. But even though, here in Germany we are quite economic with water – at least the average consumption of water during a shower was reduced from 40 to 34 gallons per day – our water footprint still does not look so good. Why? You can find out in this article. As well as the connection between organic coffee and water conservation. A small demonstration “on the living object”.

RESPONSIBILITY

Biodiversity? Who cares?

Did you know that already in 1988, the UN urgently recommended to tackle the topic biodiversity? And today, only 30 years later, it slooooowly arrives in economic enterprises and their sustainability strategies. Which is good. But insufficient. What can we do about it?

Why…?

An answer to the question, why life is getting more and more expensive.
