EP 109: Women's Woodshop

Feminist Killjoys, PhD

In our finale of Shop Local month, we share an interview with Jess Hirsch, the founder of Women’s Woodshop. We talked with Jess about owning a business in a male-dominated industry, making wood craft accessible and welcoming to women of color and non-binary folk and so much more. Recorded in the Women's Woodshop in South Minneapolis.
