An Herbal Retreat Where Folk Traditions, Science & the Spirit of the Plants Meet
 

JUNE 27-29, 2025

Attend the Full Weekend Retreat OR Saturday Botanica Workshop Only

Immersed in the woodland of Forest & Flowers, a retreat space and forest farm in Pennsylvania, we’ll journey with the elements of the season and herbal allies, through science, ceremony, nourishment, breath, movement, sound, and creativity. 
 
Educational and experiential, it’s an opportunity to connect with the land, yourself, and other plant people.  Crafting herbal products with your own hands and personal intentions is a powerful act for regeneration of the Earth and yourself.  Cultivate a deeper sense of belonging with the natural world as you also attend to your inner landscape and well-being.
