Free Herbal Event for Plant People: Introducing the 2025 Virtual Herbalism Conference
It is with great joy and excitement that we welcome you to the Herbal Academy’s inaugural 2025 Virtual Herbalism Conference – a free herbal event for plant people! What an honor to gather in herbal community from across the globe—all united by a shared love for our plant allies and a deep curiosity for the art and science of herbalism.
The Vision for This Free Herbal Gathering for Plant People
At the Herbal Academy, our mission is to teach the art and science of herbalism in ways that foster community, inspire curiosity, and support a sustainable relationship with the natural world. The 2025 Virtual Herbalism Conference is a living expression of this vision.
By bringing together herbalists, plant people, plant lovers, and educators from all walks of life, we aim to create a global space for shared learning, meaningful conversations, and heartfelt connection. This conference is designed not only to empower attendees with herbal knowledge but also to honor the plants that sustain us and the interconnected web of life we are all part of.
Creating a free event of this magnitude is only made possible thanks to the dedication of our conference speakers, who generously share their herbal wisdom, and the generous support of conference partners: Mountain Rose Herbs, Anima Mundi, Traditional Medicinals, Herb Rally, The Herbarium, and United Plant Savers.
In alignment with our mission, we’ve dedicated this year’s theme to “Connections”—inviting us to deepen our relationship with plants, with each other, and with the ever-evolving practice of herbalism. Together, we’ll explore the numerous ways herbs unite us in community. From the comfort of your home, prepare for a week of inspiration, learning, and connection.
This event will premiere live February 16 through 21!
