The Learning Garden Presents: Planning and Growing a Botanical Dye Garden image

Virtual attendance via Zoom video and audio internet connection

Presenters: Pat Strang and Joyce Tromba, Extension Master GardenerSM Volunteers

Learn how to select and grow plants that will give you a rainbow of colors to dye any kind of fiber. Or use these plants to make inks and paints. Pat and Joyce discuss plant selection, garden design and maintenance, as well as when and how to harvest your dye plants. You will get information about where to buy seeds and seedlings, and you will learn how to save your own seeds. Dye plants are easy to grow and will connect you to the garden in a whole new way.
