Join Historic Forestville to gather natural elements from around Forestville and dye fabric. Use onion skins, black walnuts, and a number of other natural ingredients to dye skeins of fiber. Clothing comes in a variety of color from blue, purple, brown, yellow, and more. During the 19th century, natural dye was the most common practice of coloring clothing. Dye would be made up of natural resources from the surrounding area or purchased if a particular color was desired.
