Created, produced and copyrighted by the Petersen family, it all began in Annette Petersen’s old-fashioned kitchen on a farm in Concord, MA. She painted pictures from nursery rhymes on the walls of the children’s playroom and handmade a dollhouse.

Annette combined her love of nature and its creatures with her imagination and natural artistic ability to make owls crafted from stones to sell in local shops. Her first mouse (named Miss Mouse, of course!) with her bonnet and basket was created and thus, Wee Forest Folk was born! Growing up surrounded by their mother’s creative influences son, Willy and daughter, Donna began to develop their own artistic talents. Both joined their mother’s enterprise and the next generation had begun!
