This year, we’re excited to host a wonderful group of vendors offering books, plant medicines, herbal creations, art, and handmade treasures. We encourage you to bring cash and treat yourself — and maybe pick up a gift or two for someone special. 💚

Tinctures & More! 💚

Hello Friends,

We’re thrilled to announce a Swap at this year’s Back to Your Roots Gathering!

Do you have an abundance of lemon balm, echinacea seedlings, comfrey, or other green allies taking over your garden beds? Bring along your extra medicinal herbs, perennials, veggie starts, or other useful plants — and trade them for something new to nurture. 🌱

And it’s not just live plants! Our swap table will also welcome dried herbs, tea blends, tinctures, ointments, and any other herbal concoctions you’d love to share. This is your chance to exchange both what you grow and what you create.

It’s simple:
✨ Bring the plants and herbal goods you’ve got plenty of.
✨ Place them on the swap table.
✨ Take home something you’ve been wanting to try or grow.

This is a gardener’s and herbalist’s dream — a chance to diversify your herb patch, discover new remedies, and share the abundance of our gardens and apothecaries with one another. 🌿💚

We can’t wait to see what treasures show up at the swap table!

With gratitude and green growing,
The Back to Your Roots Team
