Creating a (my) Dye Garden!

Creating a (my) Dye Garden!

I am so excited to be finally doing this! I am making the dye garden of my dreams (hopefully)!
~
These are the three flower beds I am starting with. I may add a fourth for an even number tbh but that is to be determined later. I haven't really worked heavily on this garden since grade 9 and I was an avid food blogger and enjoyed using lots of my own produce. Between the ages of 14-17 I grew so much produce but after that I seemed to totally loose my green thumb?? Crops went bad for a few years and I didn't keep at it but I am back! Aged 22 I shall make these boxes smt special :) Here are pictures from when I was 15 for motivation of what it will look like and what it will yield

This will be an ongoing project with updates as they come. I have started a bunch of seeds inside, others are in the dirt already. I need to get more seeds but depending on the world's status with going outside I may have to do something else and order them online.

It is now a few weeks later then ^ and I have been doing plenty of research into the plants I want in my garden. For both dyeing purposes and also the making of home grown remedies. Before I list what I have my mind set on growing let me tell you exactly what I already have in the garden:

-Raspberries
-Blueberries
-Sage
-Thyme
-Rosemary
-Camellia tree
-Sumac (for dyeing)
