Imprint Corner aims is to promote knowledge exchange, in a fun interactive environment. When it comes to slow living and slow food, Susan Sinclair is a strong advocate. Susan is passionate about fermented foods and natural plant based dyeing techniques. She loves teaching her workshop attendees how to make their own organic, artisan crusty sourdough and delicious homemade cheeses. Additionally, Susan’s appreciation of beautiful things and sustainable slow fashion, has led her down a path of exploration and experimentation towards naturally dyed fabrics using food waste and plant-based dyes. By building the foundations of knowledge, Susan believes this empowers her attendees, so they are comfort to create their own masterpieces.
