Lily is a community herbalist- meaning she cares for individuals and the community at large with her projects and work. Her training was in clinical western herbalism and Chinese medicine, and she educates and mentors others in clinical, apothecary, cultivation, education, and other herbal topics. She offers wellness coaching, classes on herbalism and holistic wellness topics, grows food and medicine for the community, and is the key formulator and educator for Haven Herbs.

You may know her from her former brick and mortar shop (Boline Apothecary in Columbus, OH), as an instructor at Cancer Support Community, or perhaps as the owner of Haven Herbs. She gets around.

Lily has other passions, too:
CULTURE! She loves a thriving arts, performance, and music scene. In California she was also an independent event promoter for music and spoken word. She booked nightclubs, organized festivals, and helped run a poetry slam and other events.

BIRDS! She has been a parrot behaviorist and caregiver and owned an e-commerce site featuring human grade food, foraging enrichments, and other holistic supplies for parrots. She loves corvids, and did corvid rehabilitation for several years while living in California. She has parrots, a Starling rescue, and had chickens, ducks, and geese at the farm.

JUSTICE! She also has a thirst for justice and has worked at myriad non-profits and organizations. People Against Hazardous Landfill Sites, Greenpeace, United Farm Workers, INFACT, Queer Nation, ACT UP, the Pynk Panthers, SF Street Patrol, Lesbian Avengers, Industrial Workers of the World, California Peace Action, Herbalists Without Borders, and the Institute for Entrepreneurial Leadership are a few of the places she has worked for a better world.
