MANITOBA FLOWER FARM
The Eco-Printing Experience
Discover the magic of eco-printing through two captivating techniques depending on time of year: flower pounding (Tatakizome) and bundle dyeing. Whether you're drawn to the rhythmic release of hammering fresh blooms onto fabric or the delicate process of steaming floral imprints onto silk, this experience offers a hands-on journey into natural dyeing.
