In February, Beyond Gardening brings back Colours from the Garden.
Facilitated by textile artist Agatha “Agy” and Cultivate Central, experience a textile art session with natural dyes, learn about plants you can use and how to extract colour from these plants. Agy will show you her methods and share experiences dying with natural colours.
Materials will be provided and a sampling of light brunch and refreshments made with produce from The Good Garden.
