SATURDAY- Saturday will consist of 4 workshops as well as an evening of entertainment with a band and an invitation to share your own tea, mead, cider, etc. and snacks around our virtual fire.
SUNDAY - Sunday will consist of three workshops and a closing ceremony.
We love and miss you all very much, but we are grateful that, at least, technology provides us with many options to see each other's faces one way or another. Best Health!

Veriditas,
The Organizers of the Great Lakes Herb Faire
Past Great Lakes Herb Faires
In 2020, we were thrilled to host an offering of free classes for our herbal community. The virtual gathering of the sixth Great Lakes Herb Faire allowed us the space to connect and commune during a year of uncertainty and disconnect. We're looking forward to an improved virtual event in 2021, with more ways to communicate and share with each other.
The 2019 in-person Faire was truly inspiring. The fifth year seemed extra special with a sense of community that is steadily growing. The teachers shared their wisdom, helping to pass the torch of herbal knowledge in a way that encouraged beginners and fed experienced herbalists.
And we cannot thank our teachers enough! Their knowledge is a true blessing to us all. Some great news is that we have most of the class recording available now. You can have access to this information as many times as you would like. While doing dishes, working in the garden, driving or lying on the couch and relaxing you will have access to the information conveyed at the Faire that encourages health and healing for yourself, your family and your community.

An Overview of the In-Person Faire
For those of you who have not yet joined us for our in-person gatherings:
Someday in the future we hope to once again have an amazing IN PERSON weekend - including brilliant teachers, classes for all levels, fun evening activities, music and dance, a wonderful kids' program, creative vendors and, of course, phenomenal food. The grounds are gorgeous and expansive, encompassing several diverse ecosystems and a plethora of wild herbs, with connections to local parks and trails. The Faire is a family-friendly event (with family pricing available). We believe herbs and natural well-being are an important part of our everyday home lives, as well as, for those who are inclined, a more in-depth discipline. For a few days, we can step into a world of our own creation: immersing ourselves in study and community and forging experiences and friendships that will sustain us long after the closing ceremony. Please join us!
(When in person, the Faire is located at Cedar Lake Outdoor Center,
2500 Pierce Rd, Chelsea, Michigan)
Stay posted here, or keep track of us on Facebook.
