Emily Ruff is the Executive Director of the Florida School of Holistic Living and a community herbalist. Her studies have taken her around three continents where she has studied under many traditions. Emily’s dedication to preserving bioregional plant traditions and ecosystems led her to serve as a Board Member of United Plant Savers. Inspired by a need for greater connection among her regional community, she founded the Florida Herbal Conference event in 2012, an event which continues to sell out annually.
