DAY OF COUNTRYSIDE LIVING 2019
Maal elamise päev – Day of Countryside Living – is an all-Estonian initiative which aims to attract even more entrepreneurial and enthusiastic people to the Estonian countryside.
On Saturday, September 28, 35 Estonian rural municipalities from Hiiumaa to Setomaa and from Alutaguse to Häädemeeste will open their doors for visitors.
On this day, you will be welcomed by kindergartens, schools, health, cultural and sports centres, community houses and local enterprises – places that shape the living environment in the countryside.
Also, all 15 candidates of the Village of the Year 2019 competition will be awaiting visitors. .
On the Day of Countryside Living you can freely communicate with leaders of local communities and think whether your next home could be here.
