Going green

On 5 September 2010, Donauwörth hosted the 16th edition of its 'eco-market'. The market is an annual event and offers a wide range of organic food and other green products mostly of local origin.

For a number of years, Joachim Schoser has been part of the team organising the eco-market. He represents 'City Initiative Donauwörth' (CID), an association of local businesses and the municipality supporting diverse events in the city. From 2006 to 2008, Joachim promoted the event also directly on the myheimat blog.

The eco-market concept appears to fit nicely with Joachim's own business Via del Gusto which imports food products from Italy made by small, traditional producers.

In case you missed it, the next and 17th edition of Donauwörth's eco-market is scheduled to take place on 4 September 2011 and Joachim will, once more, be in charge.
