Hey & warmly welcome.
My name is Elizabeth. I am the founder of the company Die Sprießerie. The Sprießerie is my roof garden in Potsdam. An oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle. A place to breathe deeply for our urban climate.
Here in the shop you will find delicacies and handmade items from my little world. Together with lovingly selected beauties for city gardens, you and your green home. Because for me, everything is inseparably linked - from the seed to the enjoyment at the table, from the first handshake of a new product to your home.
Let yourself be inspired by my enthusiasm for wonderfully beautiful and useful city gardens, for good food and fine sustainable products. If you like, accompany me through my everyday life as an entrepreneur, nature lover and ❤ person.
Or let me accompany you in building your first beautifully diverse city garden - whether on the ground or balcony.
NEW: Events in the roof garden & studio
Come by and visit my roof garden, relax here, enjoy, learn in workshops, let your creativity run wild... and above all, be completely yourself - in a lovingly designed, green urban oasis.
The Sprießerie shop
My web shop is deliberately not a giant. His fine product selection is growing slowly and only where it makes sense. I let it blossom little by little - like my plants in the garden. You can rely on this, there is only honestly beautiful and good things here to consciously enjoy. Decorate your green feel-good place tastefully. Make yourself happy with carefully selected pieces of jewelry or let yourself be inspired for your loved ones.
COLOR, DELICATE DETAILS, WONDERFUL NATURAL DESIGN, SMALL MANUFACTURERS with preference from Germany and Europe - SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION, CLIMATE FRIENDLY MATERIALS such as organic cotton or recycled plastic, FAIR WORKING CONDITIONS
I am convinced that conscious consumption of high-quality, long-lasting items and short delivery routes can make a small contribution to climate protection. In order for this to be successful, it is also important to reuse used things. This is one of the reasons why there is always a selection of SECOND HAND products in the shop that are looking for a new home.
If you come from Potsdam and the surrounding area , please take a look at my products in person in the Sprießerie Studio. Write to me for an appointment or come spontaneously to the open roof garden & studio every first Friday of the month.
The Sprießerie - manufactory
Of course you can also find all the delicacies from my manufactory here. I work with a small team at Brahmii Potsdam . There we make every product the same way you would in your kitchen - with dedication and with a huge amount of love.
We make a difference with our work - consciously. Because from us you get something unique and not a mass-produced product. Our ingredients are freshly processed from our own roof garden. What we cannot grow ourselves, we source from partners - preferably locally. We attach great importance to gluten-free ingredients and sustainable seasonal cultivation, of course organic.
From us you will receive a special treat - pure in taste and incomparable quality. We manufacture in small quantities. Often a variety is only available while stocks last.
Our garden - For companies, Kindergarten, schools & Co.
Would you like to go to a green place where you can garden together and be active? Would you like to grow and harvest something as a team? I'll help you with that.
You can get your hands dirty with me. We fill plant boxes, pots and beds in your community garden - whether on the roof terrace or in the backyard. Together we will develop a season plan. We plant whatever you want and what is good for the environment.
I support you on your way to more diversity and greenness at work, at school or in your Kindergarten.
Support the construction of the large Sprießerie roof garden
Anyone who has known Die Sprießerie for a long time knows that it is very important to me to bring more greenery into our cities and especially to unused areas.
I'm currently spending every free minute building a 120 square meter roof garden in the Center for Technology, in the middle of a large office complex in Potsdam.
The ingredients for the Sprießerie products grow here. Edible cut flowers are lovingly cared for by hand along with various (wild) herbs and processed immediately after harvest.
Visitors can retreat from everyday life and be inspired. See and learn how vegetables, flowers and wild herbs can be grown and even small trees can be planted in the smallest of spaces in the city.
The beginning has been made. But so much more is needed. And there are no funding programs for green roofs in Potsdam.
Of the planned total investment of EUR 5,000, I still need around EUR 3,000 to build more beds, fill them with soil, install an irrigation system, plants, seeds, secure supplies and of course create relaxation islands for visitors.
That's why I need your support. Help me transform a rooftop terrace full of concrete slabs and gray and a green vibrant urban oasis.
I am grateful for every contribution, no matter how small, every passing on or a helpful hand in the implementation of the project.
