The International Herb Symposium is well known for representing a wide range of ideas, beliefs, and the various ways we have of working with healing plants from shamanic and folklore to ethnobotanical, clinical and scientific. We think the teachers and classes we’ve chosen for this year’s IHS represent some of the great diversity found amongst herbalists and herbalism.

  We come together in the spirit of health, healing and cooperation to share and learn from one another. We invite you to present what you are most passionate about and to offer your views and thoughts as openly and freely as you wish. In thoughtful respect to the wild-hearted nature of plant people, we honor the many diverse paths we each follow and the great diversity of the Green Nations.
