What a Day at IHS Looks Like

Each day is built around class sessions drawn from our five tracks: eclectic medicine, clinical herbalism, plant spirit work, folk medicine, and herbal business, with time woven in to gather, wander, and connect.

Mornings open gently, with movement, chant, or yoga before the day’s teaching begins. Class sessions run throughout the day, offering multiple options in each time slot so you can follow the threads that call to you — from hands-on clinical skills to plant walks and field trips. Between sessions, the vendor marketplace, food, and open “free thyme” give you room to browse, rest, and find your people.

Evenings turn toward celebration and community with live music, performance, ceremony, and the shared culture of plant medicine that makes IHS what it is. The weekend closes with a gathering at the United Plant Savers Botanical Sanctuary, where guided hikes and time on the land send everyone home rooted.
