Here are some pictures from our first field trip this year (in August).  We went to a Natural Dyes Workshop the week after we rowed A New Coat for Anna.

Our guide took us through the woods letting the children test different leaves, flowers, and berries to see what color of dye might come from each item.

Another highlight of this field trip was painting with different dyes that our guide had made up ahead of time.  She made dye from carrots, beets, tea, and many more other natural items! 

Here is Elijah's robot painting -- he used raspberry dye and elderberry dye to make this picture.
