Jarret Alan Schlaff is a maker and solutionary. He doesn’t self identify as a chief or an executive so he serves as the creator, engineer, and organizer (CEO) of Pingree Detroit, a worker-owned, community based design and manufacturing cooperative co-founded in January 2015.
In Pingree’s Detroit workshop 10 Detroiters and US veterans are paid a living wage to handcraft bags, accessories, urban utility sneakers, pet accessories, and home goods using luxury-grade car seat leather upcycled from the American auto industry.
He has a great story to share. Hope you enjoy it.
I also want to mention the workshop we are launching on September 9th, specifically for US Veterans and their Spouses. Please share this with any veteran. or the spouse of a veteran.
