International Green Week 2025

Year after year – including in 2025 – Green Week once again drew us into the halls of Messe Berlin. As always, there was plenty to see: much that was familiar, but also quite a bit that was new, surprising, and this year, seemingly an incredible abundance of sweets. Continue reading International Green Week 2025

Rose petal jam

Matti and Tuuli Kotaja from the Finnish family business Finnish Plant FP-Kotaja Oy, founded in 1983, are real enthusiasts – with their high-quality rose petal confiture they have a unique delicacy on the market. It is particularly likeable and impressive that Matti’s family has been active in agriculture since the 16th century – he has always had his profession in his genes. Continue reading Rose petal jam

Flower Hall Reception

After the big opening event I didn’t feel like rushing to the Croatia Hall with several thousand other guests. I wanted to get some fresh air first, so I decided on the traditional flower hall reception in Hall 9 – a constant highlight of the International Green Week, always organised by the Zentralverband Gartenbau e.V. Continue reading Flower Hall Reception

Opening Event

The City Cube – Hall B is an ideal venue for the number of participants expected at the opening event of the International Green Week 2020.

A really very attractive, modern and, above all, huge event location in which, in addition to the large main stage, three screens were “stretched out” that were unparalleled. This ensured for all parts of the event that everyone could see what was happening on stage, even in the back row. Continue reading Opening Event

BIO Reception of the BÖLW

The BIO Reception of the BÖLW – Bund Ökologischer Lebensmittelwirtschaft (Association of Organic Food Industry) – based in Berlin was a special highlight of the International Green Week 2020 Berlin, not only from a culinary point of view. I would like to take this opportunity to once again thank the BÖLW press officer, Ms Joyce Moewius, for allowing me to take part in this great event. Continue reading BIO Reception of the BÖLW
