David’s commitment to excellence has created a beautiful community of talented and knowledgeable herbalists.
Learn MoreThe center of focus for the Black Walnut Botanical Conference is on the plants and herbal education, but there will be so much more! A variety of classes, wild weed walks and activities will take place throughout the weekend. We invite you to participate in as many as you wish, or to use this time and space as your personal retreat.
Our conference setting is Innabah, in the beautiful Philadelphia countryside of Chester County, PA. Innabah offers close to 200 acres for our use, and we are grateful that they have opened their doors, meadows, forests, and waters to us.
The Black Walnut is by, for, and about that which draws us closer to one another—our love of the plants. We look forward to meeting you; join us as we celebrate weaving this thread through our community!

Learn MoreOur very own Wendy Warner, MD, ABIHM, IFMCP and Andrew Appello, DACM, MSN, L.Ac., APN, RH(AHG), have just launched their amazing A&P course, available here! They are wonderful teachers and have a depth of knowledge on anatomy and physiology (as well as many other topics), especially as it pertains to clinical practice, that few others can offer. We believe you will find this class not only highly educational but deeply relevant to becoming a clinical herbalist.
In our program we strive to teach the skills necessary so that each student can accomplish that goal. We focus on differential diagnosis skills, materia medica and therapeutics which are essential to individualize treatment and help patients to not only resolve symptoms, but create constitutional change needed for physical, emotional and spiritual wellness.
Our ProgramsDavid Winston’s approach to teaching about herbs is solid and grounded. You will reference it throughout your herbal journey.Whether you take the class to help your family and friends or choose to practice clinically or integrate it into your health and wellness practice or business it will lay a strong foundation for you. The herbal community that is available through this connection is also wonderful. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to graduate from his two year program and to continue learning from him.
