An Overview of the Faire
For those of you who have not yet joined us for our in-person gatherings:
The weekend includes - 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!
The Faire is located at the Cedar Lake Outdoor Center at 2500 Pierce Rd, Chelsea, Michigan

Past Conference Recordings
Past Faires
The 2021 Faire was another virtual event, this time offering an improved platform for connecting with each other. We gathered together on-camera in Zoom and enjoyed a weekend of amazing classes, social tea time breaks, late night storytelling, and an entertaining "cook-along" hour where several participants live streamed making kitchari in their home kitchens.
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.
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.
