What We're All About


Hi I'm Jenn!

and together with my husband Gerhard and with a little bit of help from our four children we run Acorns and Twigs in America's heartland on a small acreage in Iowa.

It is our goal to help other families connect on a natural, holistic level. Our journey has taken us down several unbeaten roads. Navigating through less familiar areas and we’d love to help other parents discover the hidden gems of intuitional parenting, lost within today’s mainstream and media influenced western world. 

I hope to help you live the joy of the present moment. Slow down, unwind, take a deep breath and enjoy the process!
