Sage Mountain Botanical Sanctuary
Founded by herbalist Rosemary Gladstar and family in 1987, Sage Mountain Botanical Sanctuary is a conservation education center located on unceded Abenaki territory known as Central Vermont. Stewarding over 600 acres within nearly 80,000 acres of contiguous wilderness, this land has provided a sanctuary for over thirty years to plants, animals, and people.
Sensitive and rare natural communities, from forests to fens, are home to a diverse array of wildlife, including deer, bear, moose, beavers, bobcat, otters, and fox. These same ecosystems also host the diverse flora that make this sanctuary so unique and rich with medicine.
The Sage Mountain Botanical Sanctuary was recently incorporated into a 501c3 non-profit organization to carry the legacy forward into the next era of service to plants, wildlife and people through research, conservation, advocacy, outreach and education programs.
