VIRTUAL HERBALISM CONFERENCE - DAY 1

From the Earth: Rosemary’s Favorite Plants to Save the World with Rosemary Gladstar

Join us for a conversation with Rosemary Gladstar, a beloved herbalist, teacher, and plant advocate whose work has shaped modern herbalism. Founder of United Plant Savers and the California School of Herbal Studies, co-founder of Traditional Medicinals, and creator of Sage Mountain Botanical Sanctuary, she has built communities, protected medicinal plants, and shared plant wisdom worldwide. In this conversation, Rosemary will reveal her top botanicals to restore, nourish, and strengthen ourselves, our communities, and the planet.

Discussion Highlights:

  • Seeds of hope, courage, and connection—plants that embody each 
  • Everyday kitchen herbs that support health and resilience, with simple home formulas 
  • Small, meaningful actions beginners can take to support plant biodiversity 
  • Home and community gardens as refuges for pollinators and native plants 
  • Principles of ethical wildcrafting in the age of social media foraging 
  • Cultivating reciprocal relationships with plants 
  • Honoring Indigenous knowledge while making herbalism accessible

With decades of experience, Rosemary Gladstar has become a cornerstone of the modern herbalist community. Through her teachings, writings, and advocacy, she has inspired countless individuals to embrace the healing power of plants. 

Her books, including Medicinal Herbs: A Beginner's Guide and Rosemary Gladstar’s Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health, are considered essential reading for herbalists at all levels. As the co-founder of the United Plant Savers and of Traditional Medicinals tea company, Rosemary has not only preserved plants and herbal traditions but also ensured they flourish in the modern world.
