Grass Routes presents the Green City Tour

Thanks to perfect sunshine and a great mix of people from all over the world we could finally enjoy the first Green City Tour that took place last friday. Excited about what would wait for me I met everybody at the starting point, in front of the 2nd hand store right at Frankfurter Tor. Even though I followed the preparation for the Green City Tour as a project of Grass Routes , I did not exactly know where the Green City Tour would lead us exactly.

I got  very surprised by initiatives and projects that I had  never heard about before and I again felt Berlin’s routes as a city for many creative sustainable spirits.

The right place to have a Green City Tour like this.

We cycled along places in Friedrichshain, Kreuzberg and Prenzlauer Berg and next to exploring the diversity of sustainable places in Berlin, we also went pass historical sights watching them like many Berliner’s do on bikes.

To me the tour was a great inspiration and motivation on how there is always a way to improve things moving towards a more sustainable society and that all we need is creativity that is alive in each of us.

One of my favourites stops was Prinzessinnengarten, a concept of urban mobile agriculture. I got really inspired by the social business that has the vision of a future where every available space in big cities is used to let new green spaces bloom.

And soon neigbors might wonder about the radish embellishing my windows and .. I will be happy  to share it with them ,… !

Explore sustainable Berlin and join one of the next Green City Tours.
