Welcome to the Conservation Collection
A Naturalist's Eye, An Educator's Heart
I grew up in Thunder Bay Ontario, on the traditional land of the Anishnawbe people, the Treaty Territory of the Fort William First Nation , signatories to the Robinson-Superior Treaty in 1850.
I've spent my life walking the trails of Northwestern Ontario, learning the names of our flora, fauna, and fungi. Embracing all four seasons, I see the wonders of nature through the eyes of a child as the seasons change along the shores of Lake Superior. As both an educator and a naturalist, I believe the most important lesson we can offer our children is a deep and abiding respect for the natural world.
That's why I'm so drawn to the vintage art of our region—it features the same wildlife I've spent a lifetime quietly observing. In this collection, you will find a curated selection of vintage treasures and Canadian artistry celebrating our wild neighbours. Each piece is more than an object; it's a treasure of our shared natural heritage. By holding it in your hands, you are helping to fulfill my deepest commitment: to invest back into the nature that inspires us all, ensuring the beautiful subjects of this art will continue to thrive in the wild for generations to come.
Decor that Does Good
To honour that connection, 100% of the proceeds (minus taxes and shipping) from the Conservation Collection will be donated directly to support the vital work of organizations, who are dedicated to wildlife rehabilitation and the preservation of our local ecosystems.
When you bring a piece from the Conservation Collection into your home, you’re doing more than decorating. You're demonstrating the importance of giving back and protecting the world our little ones will inherit. Every purchase here is a direct investment in the future of our local environment.
Thank you for joining me in creating homes that are not just beautifully designed, but designed to teach what truly matters.
Courtney, Thoughtful Home
