National Herbal Medicine Week 2009
During the third week of September, all around Australia, local herbalists will be running events to promote the use and practice of herbal medicine.
Events will include talks and presentations by herbalists, herb garden tours, tea tastings and more.
National Herbal Medicine Week aims to promote herbal medicine to the general public, to correct misinformation and myths surrounding herbal medicine, and to share our knowledge of the strength, potential and value of herbal medicine.
