The village of Rothenklempenow in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania has become the center of a lively sustainability scene, creating learning opportunities, jobs and spaces for organic farming. Some write of the "insider tip of the organic food scene," others speak of the "start-up village.
The Pomeranian farm community was able to secure its soils for organic farming through the BioBoden cooperative. Since then, the farm has become much more integrated in the region, higher organic standards have been achieved and people from the surrounding villages have been employed. In addition, the Höfegemeinschaft Pommern also offers events on the topic of agriculture and sustainability for businesses and educational institutions. Their focus is on a lively exchange with and involvement of local residents who have knowledge about agriculture. Through the impulses and projects like the Weltacker Zukunft 2000m2, a lively sustainability scene has developed around the Weltacker and the farm and is attracting more and more social enterprises and initiatives to Rothenklempenow. These join forces and become Initiative RothenklempeNOW.
The actors meet monthly for the open regulars' table "Bergfest", each at a different location. There is also an open chat group for this
