''Junk Raiders 2'' is the second season of the Canadian reality television series that airs on The Discovery Channel and ION Life. The series follows the titular Junk Raiders, a team of eight professionals as they attempt to renovate a site in Toronto's Don Valley (on Bayview Avenue) and renovate it to a two-story "clubhouse" in one month with only a C$5000 budget, as part of the Evergreen Brick Works project. Because of the extremely limited budget, many of the materials needed must be found by freecycling: finding something unwanted for free and reusing it. ==The Team== The team consists of the following members, both new and returning: *Geoff Woodmansey returns for the second season of the series. Besides from his work on this show and on ''Canada's Worst Handyman'', he spends his time renovating homes in some of Toronto's most exclusive neighborhoods. *Gordie Wornoff, the only other returning member, is a salvager who salvages as a way of life. He is skilled in carpentry, having built his house from repurposed wood, and he is also a freegan, regularly eating otherwise good food that has been disposed of. *Andy Berry is the team's designer. He has designed residences, commercial spaces, and film sets. His ideals match that of the show, as his specialty is sourcing materials from junkyards and making them look pristine. *Paul Graham is the team's tech expert. The president of OpenLuna, an organization that seeks to get folks on the moon, he is also the builder behind "Beer-bot", a beverage-dispensing robot that keeps beer out of children's hands. *John Johnson is an inventor whose invention, the "Scoop-It Pooper Scooper", helped him pay for his first home. He is working on an invention that generates electricity from food scraps which he envisions could power large cities. *Merv Lane has spent 25 years in the steel trades, having helped build some of the largest steel structures in North America. *Tom Mourgas is a Greek blacksmith. He lives an old-fashioned lifestyle, from his way of life, not owning a computer or cell phone, to his way of plying his craft. *Katrina Tompkins is a Sheridan college graduate from 2009 from the Crafts and Design: Furniture Program.〔http://www.sheridancollege.ca/Programs%20and%20Courses/Full-Time%20Programs/Programs%20A-Z%20Index/Crafts%20and%20Design%20-%20Fabrics/More%20Info/~/media/WF_05_Program_AAD_Hwhitton_027/inmaterialcatalogue.ashx〕 The team's client is Evergreen, a nonprofit organization in charge of the Brick Works project, a massive restoration project eight years in the making.
