SUMMARY

In this episode of The Carbon Connection, we meet Sonya and Nina Montenegro of The Far Woods. Their conversation with Jess Daniels, host of the Soil to Soil podcast, will give you a fresh perspective on mending clothes and repairing anything in your home.

Sonya and Nina discuss how mending clothes can create a cultural shift away from fast fashion and textile waste.

Sonya and Nina Montenegro are authors of Mending Life: A Handbook for Repairing Clothes and Hearts (2020).
