How root bark reaches New York

Parcels to New York cross the whole country from our California branch to the Northeast, the longest journey in the lower 48, so allow a little longer than for a western address; the delivery window is confirmed with your order. The same service, at the same prices, covers neighbouring New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Vermont and Massachusetts, so a guild or a class that spans the state line can order to either side of it.

Tap water in New York, and what it does to a Mimosa dye bath

USGS regional data show soft water in the east and Adirondacks and hard to very hard water in western New York. Because hardness differs across the state, test a strip of pH paper in your own tap water first. Near neutral, use it as it comes; if it reads alkaline, bring the pot to about pH 5 to 6 with white vinegar or citric acid, or use rainwater, so the purples hold.

Storing root bark in New York

NOAA's climate summary for New York describes cold, snowy winters; moist Atlantic and Great Lakes air. The usual rule applies: keep bark sealed, dry and out of the light, away from a damp basement, and it holds its color well past a year.

Sassafras grows wild in New York

Sassafras albidum, the tree our sassafras root bark comes from, is native to New York, and it is easy to spot on a walk by its three leaf shapes on one branch: plain ovals, mittens and three-lobed leaves. Dyers here are working with one of their own region's traditional dye trees; on alum-mordanted wool the root bark gives warm tans and rose-browns.
