Northwoods Folk
the creator
Hi, I'm Sunny
I’m a nature-inspired mother and maker living in the northern state of MN with my husband and three boys. When I’m not tending to my garden or crafting low-waste creations, you’ll often find me in the kitchen, baking or experimenting with new seasonally-inspired recipes. From garden-gathered or foraged creations to reusing materials, I love sharing the joy of wholesome and sustainable living.
Join me on this journey toward a slower, more intentional lifestyle, where every craft, and every meal, is a celebration of simplicity and the rhythmic beauty of nature.
To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.
-Audrey Hepburn
Fun Facts about Me
1. Gardening’s been my lifelong love affair. From my earliest memories, I’ve been digging in the dirt, coaxing life from tiny seeds. It’s not just a hobby; it’s woven into the fabric of our family culture.
2. I’m a bit of a hobby hoarder—I collect interests like others collect stamps. From nurturing my garden to baking up a storm, dabbling in herbalism, and even trying my hand at basket-weaving, you could say I’m always on the lookout for my next creative adventure.
3. Believe it or not, I’m surprisingly terrible at dancing. While I may have two left feet on the dance floor, I make up for it with enthusiasm and a good sense of humor. Let’s just say my moves are more comedic than graceful!
