the chestnut forge owner, brenda, standing next to river by her house

my story

In 2013, after taking the first courageous steps towards a life free from violence + abuse, I founded The Chestnut Forge.  It is my triumph through adversity.  Ten years can change a human in many ways, whether those years are joyful or difficult, and while it felt arduous and humbling, it was a journey through which I have learned so much and have grown to be much stronger.  My place of refuge had always been the forest, listening to the breath of life, keeping secrets with the birds, where I found God’s love and peace, and so I was inspired to create this reminder of every beautiful thing this precious life has to offer.
