Keeping Pants Alive Longer With Florence - Ecofest

Every year thousands of pairs of jeans, shorts and other pants end up in landfill when they could be saved with some patience, care and a little creativity!

But it can be hard to know where to start. Typically, knees and thighs are the high stress areas that need mending and reinforcing and we’ll work on these in several inspiring ways at this fun, rewarding workshop.

Bring along one or two pairs of pants that you’d like to fix up and enjoy wearing once more. Machines, needles, threads and patches provided.

Cost: $15
