Wild Roots: Nature & Natural Dyes Walk

Come and join us for a tour of the nature trail at Claver Hill and
see what natural wonders we can discover (last year we found newly-emerged ladybirds before they had darkened into their ‘proper’ adult colours), before we look at a range of plants in the dye garden.

Ros Jones is the founder and festival director of Wild Roots. Enda O’Regan is one of the forces of nature driving Sewing Cafe Lancaster, with a knowledge of natural-dye plants and their uses.
