“I'm so excited for this event! BotanicWise events always seem to pull together the most amazing people and accumulated herbal knowledge in an area that really needs it. I always feel welcomed and like I'm returning to a group that I've always been a part of. Thanks so much for continuing to organize these beneficial and helpful community herbal events.”

“There is nothing that compares to spending time with my plant sisters sharing stories, tinctures, wisdom and hearts. These gatherings reaffirm my kinship with the earth and my sisters who love her.”
Charlene B.
“The event reinspired my love and honor of plants. The speakers were great 👍 as well as the marketplace!”
Barbara W.
"Hands down, the connection. Everything I had been needing in my life and wishing for occurred this weekend. It was like a dream! The love I felt from each and everyone was truly humbling. I certainly found myself laughing and crying, and just accepting it all. So, when I say "connection" I am referring to the spiritual connection I felt with the people and the earth. The Woman's Herbal Gathering was the best, most cup-filling holy dream."
Tavia T.
"There was so much love and heart present with the presenters and attendees. Everyone seemed so open, willing and relaxed. Loved feeling so connected to the Earth, walked barefoot most of weekend. Felt relaxed and free and soaked in so much wisdom, am still in process of assimilating a lot of it."
Maria
"This is a Sacred space to connect with other beautiful spirits. Every time I come to the BotanicWise Woman’s Herbal Gathering I meet many people who really inspire me in many ways. I feel rejuvenated and get more creative inspiration to live a joyful life."
Naren M.
Throughout the weekend I felt pure acceptance and REAL sisterhood. And on Sunday, FINALLY finding Blue Vervain, I literally fell down to my hands and knees. I've longed for my own healing, not sure where to start or who to trust. Things came together in only the perfect way- in Nature's timing, at Her speed, under Her guidance. I have dreamt of this and you made this a reality. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And I am ready for more. Open to opportunities and wishing for this not to end but to keep building.”
Tavia T.
"My daughter and I are BIPOC and attended the Botanicwise Gathering for the first time this year. It was a very positive and inspiring experience. We will definitely return next year and bring friends. The setting was peaceful and rejuvenating and we felt welcomed and relaxed. We learned a lot and the classes were interesting and informative."
Tara
"I felt very free and welcome for my first time in attendance. I enjoyed the presenters and the vendors. Everyone was there to share knowledge for the benefit of all who were there. Truly a wonderful experience and I thank everyone involved for continuing to offer this gathering."
Brenda
"My soul has been searching a community of people, specifically women, who understand health/healing, community, and hold a deep love for our mother earth. I found all of this and more. My deepest gratitude for Charis and Abbey, as well as all the other women I had the great fortune of meeting. I wish I were still there and long for when we will meet again."
Tavia T.

Everybody Welcome!

We believe the role of healing includes social action, and that learning should be accessible for all who seek it. Ticket sales go directly to support instructors, help run the event, provide scholarships, and invest in building (and improving) a community for herbalists online.

In Solidarity

We support efforts to undo racism in all of its forms; institutionalized and interpersonal. There is much work to be done in our community, and as conference organizers we commit to listening & uplifting voices which have been too often silenced.
In solidarity with the critical movements for justice, there is an optional discount for people identify as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color). Just enter “SOLIDARITY” at checkout.”

Refund Policy

Tuition refunds are available upon request until September 1, 2023. Meal tickets are non-refundable. After September 1, refunds will be available as a full credit toward any BotanicWise program or event. To request a refund, please submit our Refund Request Form.
