Overview:

Most of the world sits in ignorance of the true nature of Ethnobotanicals, the realities they imply and the gifts they offer. We, the avant-garde of the psychedelic front have allowed this ignorance to endure, and have hidden ourselves in the shadows of laws that seek only to protect ignorance. It is our goal with this eBook to share as much of the truth as we have found.

We must communicate to the people WHO we are, WHY we travel, and what we've found.

It is our duty and responsibility to do so. Let's make this a masterpiece!


Our Audience: an educated, though skeptical public.
