WILD MEDICINE CONFERENCE
"The Botanical Bard"
April 30-May 2, 2027
Nauvoo, AL
A Retreat-Style Conference
Wild Medicine is a weekend of folk medicine, herbalism, and storytelling created for nature lovers, herbalists, foragers, gardeners-gone-wild, and anyone curious about a wilder way of living and healing. Comfy lodging, delicious food, and hundreds of wild acres to explore make this a retreat and conference all in one!
The Botanical Bard
Our 2027 theme will inspire storytelling, performances, costuming opportunities, morning dances, and fire circles that will help us all tap into our inner bards. So, uncloset your cloaks, pack your bags, and join us for a weekend of creativity and community!
The Wild Companion
The Wild Companion is our annual publication of stories, poems, art, plant spirit experiences, and eco-writings from our wild community. We hope you will consider submitting your own work.
