In Memory of Jörg Werner

In Memory of Jörg Werner

Jörg Werner was, over the years, inspirational  and mission critical for so many innovators and startups in the world of vegetable growing. His out-of-the-box thinking, his insights, and his challenging unconventional predictions resulted in previously unthinkable, but ultimately brilliant ideas for the sector. Too soon did he depart, the loss immeasurable in words, the reality of the sorrow and grief are hard to bear. Jörg built and held a particular unique position in this world. He is dearly missed now and our heartfelt thoughts are with family and friends.

Nothing Gold can Stay

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
