From the Region for the Region
The regional, seasonal products are the trademarks of the rural areas of the metropolitan region of Hamburg. In a pilot project, restaurants, schools and retail stores are encouraged to use regional products, as well as build a network of business partners and prospects committed to the regional initiative. Everyone can afford the purchase of local products of the season to contribute to the preservation of cultural landscapes and climate. Another pioneering example where Hamburg’s public authorities and institutions seek higher standards.
