Welcome to Forestchella

A barefoot celebration of slowness, sacred chaos, and real-life beauty.

What is Forestchella?

There’s a quiet kind of festival happening here. No tickets, no stage—just the hum of a garden waking up, the wild joy of sticky hands, and the slow rhythm of life lived close to the land.

This is Forestchella: a celebration of the overlooked, the uncrushed, and the deeply human.

It’s not about perfection.
It’s about real life—the kind with messes and magic wrapped together in the same moment.

What We Celebrate

It’s the quiet celebration of what the world often overlooks:

  • The way the light hits a mason jar of steeped tea

  • The rhythm of bare feet thudding through grass

  • The lived-in hum of a house where real life unfolds—sticky fingers, messy counters, belly laughs, and slow dinners

  • The sacred work of stewarding a garden, a family, and a stretch of wild land

“Some days are chaotic. Some are loud. Some are just plain hard. But even in the mess, there’s beauty worth naming.”
— Jenn Christensen

The Reminder We All Need

This is a rhythm I want to live into.
A vision I want to invite others into.
Not to impress, but to remind:

You are allowed to slow down.
You are allowed to be fully human.
You are allowed to call your chaos holy.

Our Kind of Beautiful

This is a space where we normalize:

  • Homes that are loved in, not staged

  • Childhoods that are wild and present, not rushed

  • Food that’s handmade and imperfect, not mass-produced

  • Women who are rooted and real, not constantly performing productivity

“No glam squad here. Just garden boots and hair tied up in messy buns.
No stylists—just dandelions tucked behind ears.
No VIP section—unless you count the ducks.”
— Jenn Christensen

You’re Invited

So here’s your invitation:
Bring your tea, your babies, your mud-caked boots and your real, messy life.

You’re welcome here—in this wild and wonderful festival of home, heart, and land.
