03.03.10
Lake Võrtsjärv Foundation, whose main goal is
regional development around the lake Võrtsjärv rural areas, is the main
initiator to support local traditions and the creation of
entrepreneurial networks in the region. One
of the tasks of the foundation is to encourage local people for
nature-friendly economic activities which would support the growth of
eco-tourism and the development of traditional branch of production in
the region.
From this initiative and support from EU Leader Programme, the online shop www.estcraft.com was founded by A.N.K.Grupp Ltd. Local craftsmen are expected to offer
their quality products which are based on local materials and
traditional handicraft skills. Estcraft environment supports craftsmen
with the means of IT-knowledge, marketing and shipping. Just an example of local product – Unique Art Of Fish Skin .
The skins of the various fish species living in our waters have been
used in making fish skin pictures. The majority of fish have been
caught from the largest inland water body of Estonia – Lake Võrtsjärv. All the pictures have wooden frames. You may also support local craftsmen in Estonia by linking the www.estcraft.com webpage with Your webpage.
Thank You!
