Under the Canopy is inspired by the forest, and all the beauty and magic living in it. I grew up in a household rich in stories and folklore, where every parent-mandated walk in the woods held the possibility of an elf-sighting, or an encounter with some magical creature. Even now, when I am in the right mood, the hollow at the base of a gnarled old oak tree holds a hint of possibility, I wonder who lives there? and the flutter at the edge of the wood could just as easily be a fairy as a moth.

Reviving historical practices, with contemporary environmental thinking and current scientific advances, trimmings are dyed by BioDye in India, with a closed loop system. BioDye uses dyes and mordants that are environmentally safe. Dyestuffs are obtained from sustainable sources such as leaves, fruits, and regenerative stems. Waste materials are biodegradable, with compost and irrigation water used to grow dye, medicinal plants and food crops for in-house consumption. Through a collaboration with village women's groups, dyeplants and firewood are collected from renewable plantations and used in fuel-efficient stoves in the dye house. BioDye also work with local farmers to support the re-introduction of indigo in agriculturally depleted regions, thereby contributing to sustainable livelihoods.
