 Come immerse yourself in the beauty of the
Green World. Steep in a refreshing outdoor hot tub, luxuriate in a
cleansing wood-fired sauna, nourish yourself with rich and healthy
meals, and learn while sharing in the camaraderie of the herbal
community.
Held every November, the NEHA Annual Retreat is
an informal opportunity for our members to connect with each other
in a way that is relaxing, informative and fun. It is a time for
herbalists to stay connected with nature while strengthening
connections with other herbalists.
The location chosen for our retreat is intended
to be as central to the Northeast as possible, each year we
alternate locations so that members from different parts of the
Northeast can attend. This year we’re back at the popular 9Mountain
Retreat Center in Plainfield, Massachusetts. During the retreat
we’ve scheduled events for those who choose to attend or just come
to relax and rejuvenate at this lovely location.
We’ve planned several exciting funshops
throughout the weekend for you.
Retreat schedule A Plant distillation demonstration,
panel discussion, an herb walk for herbalists as well as the barter
fair and seed exchange, free time and on Saturday, Robin Rose
Bennett will be our keynote for the evening. We’ll also honor the
one person elected by membership to receive the Community Herbalist
Award. The Community Herbalist Award is our way of saying “Thank
you!” to NEHA members who have made significant contributions to the
herbal community and to making herbalism accessible to the public.
NEHA’s annual business meeting will also be held during the weekend
to give members who are interested a chance to voice their
preferences and help steer the direction of NEHA into the future.
