Herb Folk
Sunshine Coast
Herb Folk is a relaxed, heart-led herbal learning community based on beautiful Gubbi Gubbi/Kabi Kabi Country on the Sunshine Coast.
We’re all about deepening our connection with nature through the magic of plants. Finding simple, down-to-earth ways to use herbs in everyday life.
The best part? We get to learn, share and grow on this herb-loving journey together.
How does it work?
Each herbal medicine workshop will be different, because there’s a whole plant world to explore together! Sometimes we’ll focus deeply one on herb, on a medicine-making technique or a topic. Sometimes they’re more seasonal medicine-making circles, where our hearts, hands and land are united in making medicine to heal ourselves and families naturally.
Always though, we focus on fun community connections, hands-on learning and making it relevant to our daily life!

The Herb Folk events are absolutely beautiful and such a priority in my calendar. I love the opportunity to dive deep with a particular herb and in a community of ‘like-hearted’ folk. These events of empowering people with their wellness sovereignty feel potently important for these times.

specific topics such as sleep or herbal pet care or growing and harvesting medicine.
