DESCRIPTION:Learn how to make brilliant colors from your local environment with natural 
 dyer and plants-person Deepa Natarajan of the Permacouture Institute. In 
 this three-hour workshop you will learn the basic principles of natural 
 dyes, mordanting, medicinal dyes, making patterns on cloth, and flower 
 printing. We'll be harvesting some dyes straight from the garden at the 
 Berkeley EcoHouse. You will get to take home samples in a range of colors 
 and fibers. No experience necessary. \n\nAbout the Instructor: Deepa worked 
 with plants and people at the UC Botanical Garden for 5 years putting on 
 their public education programs. During this time she cultivated her love 
 of gardening and natural dyes. She has traveled to South India several 
 times learning from master dyers and teaching workshops on local, natural 
 dyes. \n\nShe is currently working with the Permacouture Institute 
 (http://permacouture.org) as the 'Seed to Sew' Project Director to partner 
 with local seed banks and tag seeds for their fiber & dye properties. You 
 can read about her plant adventures on her blog 
 (http://plantspeople.blogspot.com). Space is limited. Pre-registration 
 ensures a spot. Specify when registering if ASL interpretation is 
 requested, (at least 10 working days in advance).\n
