[Ansteorra] Need Walnuts for Dye for Gulf Wars Textiles tent

[Hillary Greenslade via Ansteorra]

To add further: 
Hulls would be best kept in a sealed container (i.e. pickle bucket) or dried out.

Cheers, Hillary

 Forwarding from the Gulf Wars Artisan Row.  If you can
 help save Walnut hulls while harvesting your seasonal crop,
 please bring them to Gulf Wars 2015.   
 If you can drop Al-Jania a note to advise you can help out,
 that would be great and let her plan accordingly.  
 Cheers, Hillary Greenslade

 Greetings fellow artisans!
 
 This past season was a poor one for walnuts in my area. Many
 of the trees
 suffered blossom rot, and squirrels are fast critters. If
 anyone else
 fared better, could you please bring some of your bounty to
 Gulf Wars and
 drop it off at Textiles Wet? It would be greatly
 appreciated. Also, for
 anyone who does needle felting, I still have several pieces
 of foam I can
 bring.
 
 In Kind,
 Al-Jania

 Oh, and HL Willoc added: 
 For dyeing, it's the soft outside hull that is needed - the
 nut can be claimed for culinary purposes. That's why it's
 important to find someone with a walnut tree - you can't buy
 the hulls from a store.
