I've been hard at work at the Textile Arts Center in Brooklyn as an intern on Sewing Seeds, an amazing natural dye outreach and education project. We are preparing for the inaugural season of our Natural Dyes CSA, which will transform an abandoned 1000 sq ft lot in the heart of Brooklyn into a natural dye garden! However, we have some start-up costs for such an undertaking. Check out my animation and help us raise $2200 to build the garden and become a part of sustainable practices in Brooklyn.
We will shortly be looking for CSA members whose shares will fund the planting and upkeep of the garden once it is built, and in turn receive 3 batches of dye plants, dye recipes, and several hands on workshops. I'll be posting more information soon!
