How root bark reaches Vermont

Parcels to Vermont 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 York, Massachusetts and New Hampshire, so a guild or a class that spans the state line can order to either side of it.

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

USGS regional data put Vermont in the soft-water band. Soft water suits Mimosa hostilis well: the bath stays close to neutral, which is where the rose and plum tones hold, so most dyers here can use tap water as it comes. The one thing soft municipal water can carry is chlorine, which dulls some colors; filling the dye pot the night before and letting it stand uncovered lets most of it escape. Rainwater, naturally soft and slightly acidic, is the ideal dye water if you can collect it.

Storing root bark in Vermont

NOAA's climate summary for Vermont describes cold, snowy winters and warm summers. 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 Vermont

Sassafras albidum, the tree our sassafras root bark comes from, is native to Vermont, 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.
