Natural Dye Summer School (five day course)
Dyeing with natural plant dyes is the oldest form of fabric colouration and has recently been rising in popularity. It has always had an established following in the folk and new age market, but the recent shift in demand for more natural and healthy alternatives has dramatically increased interest in this art.
