BAE’s goal is to educate all people to the truth about botanicals.

ABOUT US

Our Mission

Botanical Advocacy and Education is a Nonprofit that has been formed to reenergize Grassroots Advocacy and Education for the purpose of protecting the right of all American adults to use natural, unadulterated Botanicals for the purposes they choose.

Botanicals are natural plants and herbs that have helped improve overall health and well-being for centuries. Our goal is to educate all adults to the truth about botanicals, from regulators to potential consumers and everyone in between on how to purchase and consume safe, natural, unadulterated botanicals for the purposes they choose.

Numerous federal agencies do everything they can to interfere with the right of consumers to make informed choices about products they use for their health and well being. Their war on botanicals and natural plants includes but is not limited to, distributing disinformation and outright falsehoods that greatly mislead agency heads, policy makers, consumers and the American public in general, as well as enacting bans that prohibit the safe consumption and use. Our goal is to correct that through advocacy and education.

Protecting Natural Resources

Natural botanicals are a precious resource that are an important and valuable part of our  global ecosystem. We support the advocacy and the education that will encourage continued sustainable harvesting techniques, including the reforestation and protection of all botanical growth areas. We must encourage the continued protection of these delicate ecosystems and forests, which will in turn better protect the climate and the invaluable carbon exchange these areas provide.

Global Awareness

We represent millions of Americans that each have a story to tell. Government agencies and detractors want to drown out the individual voices, but we will raise those voices and together we will be heard across America and beyond.

Our History

A dedicated group of long-term advocates came together in 2022 to address the lack of solid grass roots advocacy in the botanical arena. From this cooperative effort, many trials and errors, Botanical Advocacy and Education was founded in June of 2024.  The leadership of this organization has well over a hundred years combined experience in grass roots advocacy, volunteerism and botanical education. 

Your Board

Our Team is made up of Dedicated Advocates who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of those we serve. Together we have well over 100 years of combined Advocacy Experience.
