The national event with the highest number of visitors was currently the "Green Week" in Berlin. One of the official slogans, opened with great media impact by Greenpeace climbers under the motto "Let the pig out" with special posters on top of the radio tower, was: "What does the future taste like". There was also a foretaste of this at the joint booth of the food industry in the form of acai lemonade, spectacular insect burgers and the "cold brew coffee", which is still not very well known in this country. It was to be expected that at such an important event, for which 400,000 visitors are expected, rural productions would meet harsh reality, but not with an acting Minister of Agriculture, who, among other things, enjoys cheese cubes from Mrs. Antje.

In the spring, several events await garden lovers

Nevertheless, regardless of which camp you belong to, the 83rd Green Week was definitely worth a visit. As the exhibition was still running while the monthly news was being edited, we will report on the most important highlights and insights gained in our next issue. But now to our recommendations for February:
