Rainbow + Yarrow offerings are plant dyed natural fibers for everyday living.

Janessa fortes Bautista created the Rainbow + Yarrow collection to bring into balance- beauty, spiritual practice, plant life frequency, function and everyday life. Rainbow + Yarrow embodies the rainbow of colors that is Mother nature’s pure offering and the plant medicines that nourish and heals us. She is creating a simple, comfortable, gentle and calming collection of clothing and goods for her life and now is sharing it with you. Working with natural fibers has always been key since she started making clothes as a kid, in 1995. Rainbow + Yarrow is now evolving into more than a product line, it is a way of being.

In this life.. we honor the earth, the Mother, and the source of all life.

Janessa is a designer and textile artist living in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon with her son and white wolf dog, Beija. She has been growing in community through sharing daily practice, beautiful meals, pouring tea, and sitting in ceremony.  Janessa lives surrounded by a community of healers, plant medicine teachers, artists, farmers, musicians, fire tenders and magical creatures. As a first generation Filipina American, she strives to learn and find connections to the ways of her ancestors. Working with plant dyes and plant medicine is a strong source of connection. She grows her dye plants just steps away from her outdoor dye studio, overlooking the cedar and alder forest. With wisdom and compassion, she aspires to be of integrity with all aspects of her life practice and work for the benefit of all beings.
