HerbDay! Celebrate Herbs and Herbalism!

HerbDay is a series of educational events, to take place on October 12 and 13, celebrating the importance of herbs and herbalism. HerbDay was created by the HerbDay Coalition, a group of five herbal non-profit organizations, and will raise awareness about the significance of herbs in our lives and the many ways herbs can be used safely and creatively for health, beauty care, and culinary enjoyment. As part of the 2nd annual HerbDay festivities, the USBG will host an all-day series of lectures. Sign up for the lectures individually or receive a discount and register for the whole day.
