Would you like to grow some natural dye plants this year? In this online workshop, Ria will guide you through the range of plants that can be grown for plant powered colour, and suggest ways of growing your own dyes that work with the space you have.

Whether you have a windowsill, balcony, garden or allotment, there are plants suitable for everyone to grow. Ria will discuss plant placement, soil and nutrients, as well as sharing dye samples for each plant to show the range of colours.

She will also share plans for her dye garden in 2023 and explain how this space has evolved over the years.

There will be the opportunity to ask questions at the end of the session.

The workshop will be hosted on Zoom at 7pm GMT on Thursday 16th March and you can sign up up to an hour before the event - participants will be sent the meeting link after booking their place. If you are unable to make the live session you will be sent the recording and will be able to catch up afterwards.

Ria has 5 years experience of growing natural dyes for her business and is currently studying towards an RHS qualification in Practical Horticulture. She has written a book on natural yarn dyeing which is due to be published by The Crowood Press in late March.
