Recycling "market"

I'm doing a two-month training period at the Finnish Union for Rural Culture and Education. At the moment we are touring the villages in small rural municipality of Tohmajärvi and educating people about recycling and renewable energy. Several other organizations and businesses in addition to "my" organization have displays at the events as well. Every event has free food made of left-over food from the local supermarket(s). In addition to helping to assemble and disassemble the displays I'm promoting and helping people do online tests where people can test their carbon footprint and check out how much they'd be able to produce solar energy at their house. Friday's event was held at the parking lot of a supermarket in "downtown" Tohmajärvi, but the other events are held on smaller villages at village halls or other similar buildings (the two previous blips with the taxidermy "products" were taken at such places). I've enjoyed the events so far.
