About this Event

2025 will be the 4th annual virtual gathering!

All presentations are live an recorded and recordings will be stored on the cloud for one year.

Botanica Obscura is a space to appreciate and explore our fascination with strange and unusual plants and fungi. Hosted by Eimi OstaraMoon of Poison and Bee, and Coby Michael of Poisoner's Apothecary. Our goal is to facilitate learning and a sense of community between people and plants. We are a collection of herbalists, educators, alchemists, and spiritual practitioners from a wide variety of backgrounds . Plant Spirit medicine spans across cultures and time periods, and through each of our unique areas of expertise, we can provide a uniquely magical perspective to the study of integrative plant medicine and plant-based magical practice. Botanica Obscura was created to help create space for the growing community of practitioners interested in working with our green allies. The event will host a variety of presentations including topics on ethnobotany, phytochemistry, mycology, wortcunning, plant alchemy, the poison path, plant spirit medicine, phytognosis and much more!

We will begin announcing our list of presenters for 2025 starting in October. Be sure to keep checking back for updates. You can also visit out website botanicaobscuraconference.com and follow us on instagram @botanicaobscuraconference and check our facebook event page.
