About Kristen Giovanna

Hello! I’m Kristen Giovanna.

​

Kindred Folk Commons is a vision that has been close to my heart for years, born out of my own need for connection and community while raising my six young children.

​

Through the experience of raising my children, I’ve felt the profound loneliness and isolation that many mothers face when they’re left to nurture their kids alone in a society that often feels detached, with little support or village to rely on.​​​

 

What I'm looking for when I want to get out of the house is a place where my kids and I can agree on. A place that I love being in and that they are equally excited about. I've been finding that that's exactly what many mothers are looking for - a third place where both they and their children can thrive.

​

Growing up with an Italian mother, I’ve always cherished gathering with loved ones around good food. Sharing meals with friends and family is a huge part of my life, and I’m passionate about creating that sense of togetherness around a beautiful table.

​

I also have a love for gardening and creating beautiful spaces filled with life. Planting and designing green spaces is something I’ve been doing since childhood.

​

Kindred Folk Commons is my dream to build a space where connection can flourish, where both young and old can thrive. My goal is to create a beautiful, welcoming environment where community is nurtured and people find the connection they need.
