*Optional: Bring your own natural fabrics! We agree with the Sea Ranch ethos of living lightly on the land, and in the spirit of sustainability, we would love for you to bring items from home that could use a breath of fresh color. We’ll help you navigate the process of naturally dyeing anything made from plants, such as cotton or linen, or animals, like silk or wool, to achieve vibrant and lasting colors. Please note that all attendees must dye their linen items before we open the dye baths to BYO items.
