Soul Fire Farm Liberation on Land Video Series - Natural Dyeing // Teñido Natural

Upcycling and natural dyeing are great and intimate acts of resistance against the industrialized textile industry, which is responsible for polluting many of our waterways and has a history of contributing to the exploitation of workers. Every culture has its own textile tradition and working with textiles can be a powerful modality of cultural healing. This video offers a step-by-step guide to natural dyeing using easily available, sustainable and low-cost resources. This video features immersion dye bath and botanical printing techniques.
