  • Seed kit containing woad and licensed flax fibre seed (1m²)*
  • 9 X 2hr monthly online meetings with producer of #WomanGrowsJeans and natural dyer Justine Aldersey-Williams guiding you from seed to cloth and featuring multiple industry experts including:-
    • author and indigo explorer Jenny Balfour-Paul
    • Simon and Ann Cooper from Flaxland
    • medical herbalist and Plant Spirit Medicine practitioner Pip Waller
    • hand spinners and weavers Allan Brown and Brigitte Kaltenbacher 
  • 9 x Earth Rests meditation sessions exploring deep ecology 
  • 9 month access (until 31:12:25) to a private classroom with meeting recordings to catch up on
  • Lifetime membership to private Growing Slow Textiles resource sharing and networking channel

* bonus free seed kits included for U.K. residents only although international residents who can source their own are also very welcome. Some additional materials will be required later in the year and a materials list will be sent during first meeting.
