Meet Stachi
Stachi — the friendly garden hedgehog
Behind Erntezeit is a mascot with depth. Here's who Stachi is and why he does what he does.
Who is Stachi?
Stachi is the character who accompanies you through your garden year. A friendly, slightly chubby hedgehog, hand-drawn in children's-book style. He's not just a pretty logo — he's the voice of the app. When Erntezeit gives you a recommendation, asks a question or sends a warning, it's Stachi speaking.
What's Stachi like?
Warm, practical, dry-humoured. Never know-it-all. He's the neighbour who's gardened for 30 years but has nothing to prove. He gives you the important tips and trusts you to handle your bed.
Stachi-voice
Direct, plain language, short sentences. Self-irony over marketing-speak. When a tip could be done differently, Stachi says 'my trick' not 'the one right method'. He gives you options, not orders.
Who made Stachi?
Karl-Heinz Hirt, a hobby gardener from Berikon (Switzerland). Erntezeit is his attempt to make garden-apps less duty-heavy — three inputs instead of daily diaries. Stachi is the friendly mediator who delivers that without pressure.
