Join Tobi Indyke from Periwinkle Skies Farm to learn to make your own pen & ink from natural materials.

In this workshop you will be making ink from foraged as well as farmed plant based materials, much the way our ancestors did.

Materials for making inks will include walnut husks, leaves, and fermented fruit skins.

To test out our inks, you will be crafting your own reed writing instruments from plant stems and twigs, using blades and sandpaper to shape the tips.

Reed writing instruments have been with us since ancient times up until the advent of metal nibs in the early 19th century!

Experience the bounty of the natural world as well as a bit of “time travel” in this very special workshop.

If time allows, we will include a bit of calligraphy for journalling.

Tobi Indyke is proprietor of Periwinkle Skies Farm, propagating and providing plants for pigments and herbal tea.

Tobi’s passion is for foraging from nature to create artist colors the way they have been crafted for thousands of years before synthetic paints were introduced. Her mission is to share with others the magic and joy of co-creating with nature through the alchemical process of crafting natural paint.
