I haven't been able to post on my blog in a while, but this is from a workshop I held at the end of February at Nakano City Government Building.

After explaining about Shinshu deer leather (Gibier leather) as an ethical project, this is the third time we have held this event at the Joint Government Building, and the people who have gathered are all prefectural employees (^○^)

This time, we distributed the contents of the ethical project to everyone like this.
He explained this as the "Nagano model of circular economy," in which deer exterminated in Nagano City can be utilized in a circular manner.

The left turn is "Wa Cafe Yorozuya"
Clockwise: "Spikana" → "Mersen Co., Ltd." → "Gruber Leather"
The damage caused by pests is a problem all over the country, but I am writing this blog in the hope that it will spark a movement towards local production and consumption in various areas.

We feel an obligation to continue to promote and sell this recycling-oriented activity (although it may be selfish 😆).
This activity is described here

*The Shinshu Ethical Project is being carried out independently by Gruber Leather, and this illustration represents the connection.

Now back to the workshop in Nakano City.

The sight of them steadily explaining things and trying to spread the word about their activities 😭
I am trying my best☺️

The item we created this time is an employee ID holder that can be worn around the neck, just like the one in the Ueda Joint Government Building.

I know it must be quite hot to see Mr. Harayama in a sweatshirt now that we're in the early summer, but please bear with us.

Maybe the usual stamp engraving is the peak of excitement after all?

I design my products so that people can say, "I was able to make something pretty good!"
We are also limited to a time of about 2 hours, so Mr. Harayama and I are working hard together to finish it☺️

The event was generally attended by around 10 to 15 people, and was a great success with many participants again this time!

I plan to travel as far as possible by car to spread the word about this activity.
We actually do this for companies that don't allow blogging, so we'd love you to invite us to be part of your company events!

Where should we go next? (^○^)

Thank you for reading to the end!
