PHOTO GALLERY: THE MONSOON BLOOMS DYE HOUSE

20/3/2017

WORDS & PHOTOS: SAMANTHA KAMALA

​It's the pride and joy of the Monsoon Blooms operation; a few wooden houses amidst the forests of Kerala dedicated to growing medicinal plants, dyeing fabrics and weaving cotton by traditional handloom. When asked how long they've been using plants to dye cloth, the owners tell us simply, "over 10,000 years. This was the work of our forefathers." Their knowledge and passion is simply unimaginable, and these photos don't nearly do it justice.

ABOUT SAMANTHA KAMALA
Samantha is the Co-Founder of Monsoon Blooms. If it weren't for her recent capriole into motherhood and wifehood, this would be the loveliest title she has ever known. Even trumping her much loved Travel Writer days.

Hello! I was wondering do you teach workshops? I am very interested in learning how to dye fabrics with ayurvedic herbs.

I love your work and thank you for the inspiration!
with gratitude,
Alana

Hi Alana, thanks so much for your interest in Monsoon Blooms. At the moment our dye house doesn't offer workshops. I'll be sure to reach out if things change. They are currently expanding their facilities and showroom so hopefully workshops may come along with time.
Much Kindness,
Samantha
