Join us as we have Robyn from The Gnomist on our Show! If you love inspiring stories, amazing people, and fairies, you must listen to this episode!
Robyn is the creative force behind the mystery of Firefly Forest. In the Spring of 2013, she began the project as part of her personal journey towards hope and healing. A self-taught carpenter, and with the help of her young sons, she conceived, carved, and then secretly placed each door along a well-traveled and picturesque trail in the heart of America. Working together, their anonymous efforts strengthened the bond of love, sharing, and unity that was such an important role in their lives. However, none of them could have anticipated the impact Robyn’s work would have on the lives of so many others.
From the beginning of Firefly Forest, members of the community became followers and, as each piece of the collection was added, the group of followers grew. Families came together to marvel at the wonder and meaning of each work of art; those who had been strangers developed a different sense of community as they gathered to admire the workmanship. Everyone wondered who might be behind it all and an entire community was brought together by the magical appeal of child-like imagination. But, most profound was what people found in their quiet moments in Firefly Forest—the peace, joy, hope, and relief they so needed.
