Introduction to Natural Inks

Learn how to make inks from kitchen waste, wild plants and other natural materials. Using plants gathered from the gardens you will learn how to extract colour and use modifiers, binders and preservatives.

Natural inks are absorbing and can be addictive as you explore the world through natural colour. No experience needed, just curiosity and enthusiasm.
