Lillian and her husband Dave are the team behind Brummet Media Group, high-fiving cheerfully as they pass each other on the way from checking off one item or other from their long to-do list. After moving to their dream location (in the Kootenay Region of BC, Canada), they have been methodically converting the abused lot over to the little park it has become – and in doing so have gained certification with bee, pollinator and wildlife organizations. Their home, too, has become energy efficient via the many upgrades they have done. Their business includes Dave’s music studio and percussion accessory products and graphic design work as well as numerous award-winning non-fiction books and popular blogs.

Dave and Lillian were presented with an award for "outstanding use of various media in ongoing outreach work to reduce waste in our environment" by the Recycling Council of British Columbia. They have also been recognized as Community Heroes by the LiveSmart BC program.

Seeds of Diversity awarded them with a Certificate of Appreciation for various volunteer contributions.

Boundary Family Read (Columbia Basin Alliance For Literacy) presented the couple with a certificate of appreciation for their contributions.

Lillian's poetry attained Editor's Choice Award for Outstanding Achievement in Poetry, not once – but twice.

Dave's award winning photography and graphic design is visible throughout their published work. See samples of his portfolio.

They have been acknowledged for the intensive landscaping work they have done on their property by the following organizations: Canadian Wildlife Federation, Pollinator Partnership, North American Butterfly Association, and the National Wildlife Federation.
