Cascara Sagrada Bark
Many people remember Cascara bark for its medicinal properties, but did you know that it makes a gorgeous “golden-honey” dye?
People also wonder about over-harvesting the bark because of its medicinal value. Cascaras actually grow like weeds and with a little extra thought can provide plenty of medicine and dye without endangering the stands. This is at least the case here in the Pacific Northwest where we will never run low on beautiful Cascara Sagrada trees!
These are the same buckthorns that produce bounties of black berries that can also be used for dye or a deep green ink.
Dried Cascara Sagrada Bark comes in 1 lb. bags. Email to request other quantities.
