This intersection of care extends to a diverse portfolio of businesses that reflect her eclectic expertise and passions. Beyond her work as a clinical herbalist and potion master at Haven Herbs, she produced music and spoken word events through daniland productions and catered to avian aficionados through Squawk and Howl Parrot Sitting and The Squawk Store. Whether she is caring for a feathered friend or formulating a tincture, her approach remains transparent and entirely free of corporate nonsense.

Lily’s clinical background is as varied as her activism. Since transplanting to the midwest, she has supplemented her Western herbalism training with studies in Chinese medicine (at AIAM), pharmaceuticals (becoming a licensed pharmacy technician), energetic medicine (Reiki, acupuncture, flower essences, and homeopathy), mind-body medicine, and Ayurveda. This multidisciplinary knowledge allows her to serve as a unique voice in holistic wellness, teaching in-person, through her online courses, and empowering people with "the people's medicine."

Ultimately, Lily Kunning is a punk-rock plant whisperer working to make the world a healthier, more irreverent, fun, and more equitable place.
