Natural Dyes - the Top 3 European Dye Plants

Natural Dyes - the Top 3 European Dye Plants

Looking to buy some organic cotton fabric I came across this useful site which sells all types of natural dyes and even gives info on how to grow plants such as madder.

The process of dying fabric causes terrible environmental damage and that's before the fabrics end up in some Chinese sweatshop and finally our high street!

Hardly any fabric gets dyed in Europe now as we have lawas to stop manufactureres polluting watercourses. In China and India the same laws do not apply.
