Roger,

I'm only guessing but maybe a pottery supply place in Washington State?
Two I know of (but don't have addresses for) are Seattle Pottery Supply, and
Clay Art in Tacoma. They're probably listed in the online yellow pages (or
white pages).
Good luck on your search! (Wish I'd kept the ash that was on my car after
the mountain blew, but I wasn't a potter back then.)

To Kat,

You are close enough to Mt. St. Helen to go up there with a baggie and a
shovel. Stop by the road side and start shovelling. We did that 2 years ago
and we drove from Florida. We had no idea that it would still be laying
around so we had to borrow baggies from the picnickers. I must add that we
haven't used it yet so if anyone has a good volcanic ash recipe they are
willing to share, we'd appreciate it.

If you can't find it from Seattle Pottery or other commercial source, I
have some for $1 a pound plus shipping.
