Mycopigments: Exploring Mushroom Dyes of the Redwood Coast with Alissa Allen
3/21 Class full!
Good news — a second workshop has been added for Sunday, March 22. Use the registration links below to sign up.
Many wild mushrooms and lichens contain permanent, intensely colored dyes. In this workshop, you will explore a multitude of dye mushrooms found right here on the Redwood Coast.
Wild foraged fungi and ethically harvested lichens will define our palette. Using 10 species of urban and woodland fungi, along with eco-friendly mordants, we will create a full spectrum of incredibly rich colors - about 20 in all! Learn about foraging, ethical practices, basic identification concepts, and get hands on experience extracting mushroom and lichen dyes for wool and silk.

Look into the world of mushrooms and how to cook them, dye with them, pick the edible and medicinal ones and avoid the poisonous ones. Science advisor Henry Young pulls mushrooms out of his basket, Debbie Johnson gives us cooking hints, and Marjorie Young shows us who is gathering mushrooms from around the world. First aired live on CTV Santa Cruz, January 3, 2015.
