Hi! I'm Lori. farmer, textile dyer and graphic artist. I grow indigo, aka persicaria tinctoria. I also weave with fiber donated by our herd of alpaca, and create unique kiln fired ceramic buttons. Our farm is forever evolving. We started out breeding huacaya alpaca for their fiber, which I would spin and dye. I have transitioned to a dye farm, where I also grow madder and weld to add more color to my palette.

We do not accept returns or exchanges. But please contact me if you have any problems with your order. If something arrives damaged, please hang on to the item and packaging so I can put in an insurance claim. I will then either remake your item or refund you your money.
