About this Talk

In this session, clinical herbalist, author, and former Green Beret medic Sam Coffman combines decades of field medicine experience with practical herbal knowledge to teach medical self-sustainability. Learn how to bridge conventional first aid with botanical medicine, giving you the tools to handle health crises with confidence—whether facing a wilderness accident, grid failure, or everyday emergencies at home. Sam will cover acute illness and trauma care, introduce his emergency “Herbal Farmacy” of top 10 essential herbs, and share strategies for building your own first aid systems that integrate both herbal and conventional tools. From wilderness accidents to home emergencies, Sam offers grounded, experience-based guidance that empowers you to respond with confidence and care.
