Waiver and Cancellation and Withdrawal Policy Agreement

Any person(s) who purchase a pass for the Vancouver Island Herb Gathering hereby affirms that they have read and understood the above statements comprising the Waiver, Cancellation and Withdrawal Policy Agreement.

Waiver

I hereby give permission for photography and videography (filming) over the weekend that may include me and may be used subsequently for promotional purposes.

I understand and agree that attendance at this gathering and at classes and workshops where I learned clinical applications of herbs, does not mean or imply that I shall be licensed or qualified to practice as a herbalist nor to diagnose, or treat any medical condition excepting to such extent as by prior training and qualification.

Any adverse consequences obtained by myself or others resulting from the use of information provided to me during the 2024 Vancouver Island Herb Gathering shall be solely my own responsibility and I shall not hold liable any of the instructors of the program in any way.

I understand the Gathering is held on a working farm and botanic sanctuary, and I release Innisfree Farm, its owners, employees, and agents from liability for any injuries or damages sustained by my inability to following the safety instructions stated during the Opening Circle.

I acknowledge that I will be in control and awareness of myself and my actions at all times during the Gathering and if I am not, I may be asked to leave without refund.
