Episode Synopsis "Ep#1: The Renewal Workshop founder Nicole Bassett \\ Diverting clothing from landfills "

Thanks for checking out the first episode of Pulling the Threads, this adventure took me to The Renewal Workshop headquarters in Cascade Locks, Oregon for a week of learning about their business. My week of shadowing, working various jobs and studying their company ended with a conversation with the co-founder, Nicole Bassett. The Renewal Workshop is the leading provider of circular solutions for apparel and textile brands. They are organized around the idea that businesses have multiple responsibilities for generating positive, lasting value. The interview in this episode was recorded August 2019 at The Renewal Workshop headquarters in Cascade Locks, OR. Pulling The Threads, is a part of It Matters Wear, a consulting company dedicated to "Beautiful Things Without Harm" - created by me, Jancy Quinn.  Learn more about The Renewal Workshop and checkout their renewed items for sale here: https://renewalworkshop.com/ Visit our Instagram page (It Matters Wear) for photos from the headquarters visit and to follow along for future stories: Instagram @ItMattersWear
