American Herb Association

Stay Connected with the World of Herbs

Founded in 1981 by herbalists Kathi Keville and Bob Brucia, the American Herb Association (AHA) is network of professional herbalists dedicated to the effective and safe use of plant medicine. For over four decades, the AHA Quarterly has supported herbalists, health practitioners, and plant enthusiasts by supplying reliable resources, timely news, legal concerns, new book and media reviews, herbal events, and commentary about new trends. It also delves into current myths and inaccuracies about herbs.
