Vancouver Island Herb Gathering

Innisfree Farm and Botanic Garden, Courtenay, BC 3636 Trent Rd, Courtenay, BC V9N 9R4, Canada, Courtenay, British Columbia, Canada

The Vancouver Island Herb Gathering is a place where we come together to celebrate plants and people. Hosted at Innisfree Farm & Botanic Garden in the heart of the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island BC, herbal teachers, students and plant lovers from across North America get together every 2 years. We celebrate, we laugh, we learn, and we meditate with plant medicine as our focus, and community as our backbone. Our theme this year is Cultivating Right Livelihood on the Plant Path. Discover the secrets of successful plant people who have built thriving farms, businesses and clinical practices in harmony with nature. Our focus for this year’s Gathering is on the essentials of creating and managing a fulfilling nature-centric life and building a profitable herbal business that positively impacts your community, your environment and yourself. We have 24 wonderful speakers lined up this year. I'll be presenting "Research Skills for Herbalists - finding and interpreting data for clinical practice." Hope to see you there.
