MEET THE VISIONARY
Botania was created by Kimberly Rhine, whose experience in hospitality, entrepreneurship, and creative direction inspired her to build an event that feels both elevated and impactful. Driven by a real passion for the industry, Kimberly believes in the power of community, education, and intentional experiences to help shape a more thoughtful future for plant-based and hemp-derived spaces.
Her vision for Botania comes from a desire to create something beautiful and immersive while also standing for something larger. As conversations around hemp continue to evolve, Kimberly is passionate about protecting the future of the industry, supporting responsible growth, and creating space for education, advocacy, and connection. Botania reflects that mission through a carefully curated experience designed to celebrate botanical culture in a way that feels modern, welcoming, and purposeful.
