Join Sasha Duerr and Kelsie Kerr at Gospel Flat Farm in Bolinas, California for a full-day workshop of exploring the color and flavor of summer.
Spend the morning making seasonal plant dyes and tasting the diversity of locally farmed and foraged ingredients of Northern California. Create a plant palette with Sasha, and dye an array of stunning take-home textiles. Kelsie will host a tasting of local and seasonal produce.
Begin the lunch hour with an aperitif and mid-summer weed walk to learn about edible and dye producing plants in the wild.
Sit down together for a delicious lunch and color installation dyed with the same ingredients.
Our SUMMER COLOR+TASTE PALETTE WORKSHOP is part of PERMACOUTURE INSTITUTE's FOUR SEASON SERIES - more unique sessions will be offered to savor slow textiles and the biodiversity of color and taste throughout the upcoming year.
