The money hangs on the trees pursues a simple but effective idea: we harvest leftover fruit in the Hamburg countryside and process it into exquisite juices and spritzers, which are then sold directly by people who are mostly forgotten in society and the labour market or have not (yet) found a place.
Our employees combine strokes of fate or limitations such as blindness, deafness, depression, long-term unemployment or homelessness.
In addition to juice distribution, we cultivate orchards, create biotopes and flowering meadows and train our employees. Appreciative and individual. The jobs are year-round, subject to social security contributions and ecologically meaningful. Our eco-social project not only conserves resources, but also focuses on the dignity of people and the meaningfulness of their work, whether they have physical or mental limitations.
Mr Till Kelpe
We work in an ecologically sustainable way by using forgotten resources: Fruit that is left hanging on the trees or lying in the meadows. Socially sustainable by employing people with disabilities, and economically sustainable by covering most of the costs from the income of the special-purpose enterprise. So we are not a "normal" beverage company but a social juice shop.
