Fourth Annual Midwest Women’s Herbal Conference in Wisconsin

The fourth annual Midwest Women’s Herbal Conference will be held June 5, 6 and 7 at Camp Helen Brachman, in Almond, Wisconsin, between Milwaukee and Minneapolis. Dr. Jody Noe, Leslie Tierra and many other speakers, herbalists and authors comprise the more than 60 workshops, talks and plants walks geared toward both newbies and experienced herbalists. Children and teen camps are also offered.

The organizers have experienced herbal apprenticeships in the Wise Woman tradition and are passionate about women gathering to share traditional wisdom. Serving the Great Lakes and beyond, the conference is a holistic gathering of the feminine. Topics include family health, wild edibles, fermentation, permaculture, movement, herbal wisdom the Wise Woman Way and much more. The Red Tent is a communal space, invoking the spirit of generations of women and celebrating women’s inner wisdom. Group activities include swimming, evening entertainment, a marketplace, film screenings and roundtable discussions on building herbal communities.

In addition to the main conference, five longer preconference workshops will be held, including Herbal First-Aid; Herbs for Lyme Disease; Tongue and Pulse Diagnosis; Herbs for Body Systems; and Holistic Sexuality.
