Hi! Thanks for stopping by. I am a chronic “maker” so this site may be a little confusing, but I’m trying to combine all my worlds in this one place and have it make some sort of sense! Read below or click links above to each page.

Handmade sandals & shoes, earrings, lip balms, oak leaf keychains & barrettes, weather tree calendar and moon charts, and MORE are all at my Etsy Shop!

I’m taking orders for custom handmade shoes as my time permits. Go to my Etsy Shop, BirchMoonShop.etsy.com, and send me your foot tracings as a DM after you order (instructions on the listing). Right now I am only making custom 3-hole simple sandals. They are minimalist, super comfortable, stay on the feet for walk & hikes. Basically it’s all I wear on my feet Spring thru Fall.

I highly recommend the elastic lacing addition – it really keeps em snug and easy to put on and take off!
About our FARM

Birch Moon Farm is in Shutesbury, MA, surrounded by birch trees and overlooking the beautiful Quabbin wilderness. We are Keith and Sarah, your growers. We grow everything organically, adding much to the soil in the way of minerals and compost. Sarah is the maker. We are a wood heated & solar-powered home, we cook slow on a woodstove and have been electric car drivers since 2002 (not a typo). Ask us about electric cars anytime!We still sell delicious Extra Virgin first cold-press, single source, organic olive oil from Olea Estates in Sparta, Greece ~ my extended family who has had organic olive oil production in the family for about 150 years. It costs $70/tin (cash only) and we do not ship, so come and pick some up if you’re in the area!

Birch Moon Herbals is now technically closed, although I do put small batches in my Etsy Shop now and then. Thank you to all my customers for supporting my organic bodycare products for 16 years! You may occasionally find my herbals freshly made at the Garlic & Arts Festival in Orange, MA or at the Hartsbrook School Holiday Fair in Hadley, but no longer in any stores!

This has morphed into an informational site only, beginning as our farm blog. I’ve removed a lot of the original shoemaking photos that were slowing the site down. Someday I’ll do a real website~ when I want to spend time inside, on the computer, for long periods of time, haha (so basically don’t hold your breath lol).

I’m on Instagram @farmshoeshandmade and my Etsy shop is HERE, please click this link to stop by and shop!

  1. Hey Sarah,

    Great blog and site! Beautiful pictures and updates….I just signed the mailing list. I don’t get on e-cricket much these days so I haven’t seen the blog in a while but am glad to get it direct! Thanks,

    Ben

  2. Hi Sarah
