  • Upcoming Event:  Fall Conference

    OUR HERBAL ROOTS

    September 23, 2023 at Jackson's Mill, Weston, WV

     

    WVHA Fall Conference . The conference is open to the public to learn about native plants and medicinal herbs from knowledgeable herbalists, WVU professors, herb/plant farmers, authors, and naturalists all who encourage the use of West Virginia farm and forest grown medicinal plants and herbs. Keynote Speaker is David Hawkins who is a Mater Herbalist and Certified Nutritional Consultant and owner of Mother Earth Foods and has been a practicing herbalist for over 40 years. “Our Herbal Roots” is the theme of the conference, shared WVHA President Eve Von Deck. She said, “Herbs bring us joy in many ways – fond memories of a fragrant kitchen or garden, relief from many of the ills that we suffer, and a pleasant reminder that we are all connected to the earth through Mother Nature.” You can select from fourteen speakers on various topics related to growing, collecting, pollinators, herbal medicine, and plant identification with two make & take classes as well as a cooking competition and raffle. Registration and more information online at www.wvherbassociation.org or at the door (cash only) which opens at 9:00 AM Saturday. The conference begins at 10:00 AM. Limited lodging is available by calling Jackson’s Mill. All ages are welcome!
