I am Rev. Dr. Lynn Ann Till — a Folk-Futurist Herbalist, generational Veštica/Bajalica, Ìyálòrìṣà initiated to Yemayá, ordained Interfaith Minister, Doctor of Divinity and mother of four. For more than 20 years I have been a practicing herbalist, spiritual worker, and teacher rooted in the Denver community. I am a founder of and main instructor for Folk-Futurist Community Medicine.

I offer Tea Leaf Readings, Spiritual Healing Sessions, Herbal Consults, mentorship and more through Baba Ružas Garden as well as offer sliding scale Tea Leaf Readings through the Ancestral Medicine Clinic at Alchemy Ritual Goods.

Sessions with me are compassionate, trauma-informed, and liberation-based. Each one is entirely individualized, shaped by what you bring, what you most need in this moment, and what the plants, the ancestors, and Spirit call for. I think of myself as a translator, listening for what needs to move, what needs to be named, and what is ready to be released.

Baba Ružas Garden is named for my Stara Baba, my great-grandmother, who opened the door to our ancestral traditions and continues to walk beside me in this work.

Not everything that is inherited arrives intact.

I have spent much of my adult life learning to name what I carry: studying, reaching back, and working to understand traditions I was born near but not entirely inside. I am a diaspora practitioner, deeply rooted in my Balkan Serbian/Romani/Vlach ancestral traditions alongside my blended Afro-Cuban Lucumí, West African Ifá and Folk-Catholic spiritual lineages. Reconnecting to the living traditions I work within has been a continuous homecoming.

As a white-bodied woman who works within majority Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) traditions and communities, I strive to walk with humility, ongoing accountability, and a commitment to Ìwà Pẹ̀lẹ́ in how I practice and how I show up.

I’m humbled to carry over 30 years of study across traditions, lineages, and continents, I have learned under and apprenticed with herbalists, midwives, curanderas, earth-centered healers, shamanic practitioners, and spiritual elders. I hold their teachings with deep reverence and in gratitude always.

Baba Ružas Garden is part of the Denver Collaborative Health Center, located inside the historic Gebhard Mansion on the cusp of Denver's Five Points and Whittier neighborhoods.
