Bundle Dyeing in the Garden

  • Get Bentz Farm 30700 Northfield Boulevard Northfield, MN, 55057 United States (map)

Come spend a summer evening on the farm immersing yourself in the magical world of natural dyes! We will be leading a natural dye workshop focusing on locally grown plants. We will walk you through the process of eco-printing plants on fabric through bundle dyeing. You will spend time in the garden learning about how each plant is grown and learning of their historical and cultural significance. Next you will learn how to harvest the plants to use in your bundles for eco-printing. Each student will take home four eco-printed tea towels.

All experience levels welcome! Students are encouraged to bring their own snacks/food/beverages.

The class is limited to 6 students.

This is not a demonstration. This is a fully immersive, hands-on class.
