OUR STORY






















Nature Girl Finds
Born at the base of Madonna Mountain in a Central Coast town called, SLO, Nature Girl Finds is a one woman show.
​
The owner, Lauren Williams, is from the Midwest and now lives on the Central Coast of California. Her background is Environmental, Health, Safety and Sustainability. Fashion has always been a main love which lead to the upcycled fashion line which includes collections such as; National Park patch shirts, Pendleton fabric denim jackets, and alpaca items imported from Peru.
​
At the core of Nature Girl Finds, is a love for being outdoors and exploring, wearing upcycled/ pre-loved fashion and building a community of Mother Nature lovers.
​
Each nature girl/ outdoorsman will embark on a re:adventure bringing her/ his locally sourced, upcycled, nature inspired, outdoor clothing back into the wild. Each sale helps to support our National & State Parks.
​
All alpaca items are hand knit or embroidered by artisan women in the mountains of Peru. They are made in a traditional fashion, with naturally dyed materials, and with love. The women work with my dear friend who ensures that the women are paid a fair wage and helps to promote their communities and cultures and allows them to make a living from their craftsmanship.
​
Currently, I am working on Rosemary Gladstar's herbalism certificate and I am thrilled to pass along my knowledge and bring a collective knowledge to every nature girl. I also, work with Doterra essential oils and would love to teach you more about their powerful uses. Find more information and resources on the Natural Living page.
