About this tour
Three yards within walking distance of each other, all doing the same thing differently. You will leave with indigo under your nails for about a week.
The stops
The indigo vats, and how you tell a live one from a dead one
The bark and root yard, for everything that is not blue
The drying line, which is the photograph everyone takes
Wear
Nothing you love. The dye does not come out.
