Join Gifting Grove for an inspiring evening as we explore the quiet alchemy of natural dyeing. We’ll begin with wool sourced from local farms, then make colorful, sustainable dyes made entirely from food waste. Led by fiber artist Natalie Shekey, you’ll learn how to coax color from what would have been discarded and leave with a hand-dyed bundle of beauty and connection.

​This workshop honors the full gift of the Earth — from the sunlight, rain, and soil that nourish grass and sheep, to the farmers who tend, the hands that spin and weave, and the food that connects us all — in a circle of mindful care. We’ll work without harsh chemicals or plastics, letting the hues emerge slowly, as they do in nature. In this way, the skein you take home will carry a story: of land and weather, of animal and plant, of gratitude, and of the beauty that blooms when nothing is wasted
