Renovation Nation
'Renovation Nation' was a green home building show starring Steve Thomas, formerly airing on the now-defunct Planet Green channel in the US. Episodes began airing 4 June 2008, and the show produced two seasons, totaling 66 episodes, before cancellation. Typically, an episode consisted of Thomas visiting homes that featured various types of green building projects, be they in new construction projects or in, as the title suggests, green renovations of older living spaces. Frequently homeowners and residences would be featured across multiple episodes, as each homeowner might have been involved in multiple projects such as alternative energy generation, energy conservation and eco-friendly construction techniques and materials.

Every stage matters — pitch decks and treatments from development, location scouts and table-reads from pre-production, set photos and crew anecdotes from production, edit-bay notes from post, and press kits, festival memories, or marketing ephemera from distribution. Any moment that didn't make the press tour, any document or photograph that's been sitting in a box — please share it so it's not lost to time.
We particularly welcome contributions from writers, producers, cast, crew, festival programmers, distributors, marketing teams, their families, and anyone who was there at any stage.
