Who we are.
Rebecca Twanow
Rebecca is a small business owner, community advocate, and Mahone Bay Town Councillor. As the founder of Oak and Fern Home, she combines her passion for timeless design with a commitment to sustainability. Alongside her partner, she has helped create a new community garden and continues to work on initiatives that support local families, businesses, and housing.
”For me, home has always been the heart of family—a garden where we grow together. It should be safe, comfortable, and suited to our active lives. Creating that kind of space isn’t about following a single catalogue; it’s about blending the old with the new, embracing an eclectic mix that reflects our story.”
Pieter de Bruin
With his background in international Interior Design and experiences living and travelling abroad, Pieter brings a sophisticated eye and adept hand to curating the Oak & Fern Home collection.
“When considering a piece, I always ask myself if this is something I would use and even treasure in my home. If yes, I feel confident bringing that item or product line into the shop. I only want to be surrounded by practical things; if they’re fabulous, even better.”
