Hello, I'm Lila!

​I am a loving SCOBY mom and Certified Nutrition Consultant from Berkeley, California. I have been teaching kombucha brewing classes since 2012 and have shared my culture with hundreds of people all over the world.

Brewing kombucha has seriously changed my life. I got my first SCOBY after volunteering on a farm on Vancouver Island and have been obsessed with it ever since. Brewing kombucha got me thinking about what I put in my body and how it makes me feel. It also empowered me to start making food myself that I'd usually purchase from the supermarket.

Fun fact: I am also a food illustrator and created all the fun kombucha illustrations you'll find on my website!

In addition to running Kombucha to the People I have a private nutrition practice and specialize in digestive wellness, chronic skin conditions, fatigue, and hormonal issues. I struggled with terrible digestive and skin issues for many years, but that all changed when I started to shift what I ate. I've learned so much throughout my personal healing and professional experience. Its my goal to share the healing powers of food with you in a fun and delicious ways!
