My name is Autumn, and I’m the owner and founder of Autumn Brooke. My holistic journey began over 20 years ago when my mother first started hers. At just 16 years old, I began working in a local family-owned vitamin store, but it quickly became so much more than a job to me. We offered natural foods, supplements, a deli, and even services like ionic detox foot baths and live blood analysis under a microscope. That experience became the catalyst for my journey and opened my eyes to how disconnected many of us have become from nature and holistic living.
 
Since then, my passion for natural wellness and intentional living has continued to grow and evolve. I strongly believe that food can either nourish and heal us or contribute to illness, and I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with more natural ways of living whenever possible.
 
Alongside my love for holistic living, I’ve always been a deeply creative person. I began crocheting at 13 years old and have continued creating ever since. More recently, I’ve also fallen in love with the art of stained glass. Autumn Brooke is a reflection of both my creative spirit and my connection to nature — a collection of handmade pieces and products inspired by the natural world and crafted with intention, heart, and authenticity.

The motto for P Patch Designs is “Faith in every stitch.” Growing up, we always watched my grandparents on both sides of the family grow the most beautiful, fruitful gardens and my sweetest memories with them come from helping them in their gardens.
