Meet The Owner - Freya

 
Living on 7.5 acres in a small, close-knit community, my life is a tapestry of independence and connection. My partner and I grow our own food and tend to our animals—sheep, ducks, and chickens—while I balance my business pursuits. Surfing in my spare time, I find inspiration and balance in the waves, embodying the slow-living ethos that undercurrents through my personal and professional life.

I am no stranger to the world of entrepreneurship. With 17 years of experience running my own businesses, I have mastered the art of blending creativity, sustainability, and community into every venture I undertake. From my early days of carving out my place in the business world to my current passion project, Sunflower Seed Vintage, my journey has been defined by a dedication to meaningful, purpose-driven work.

My love for connection and adventure has taken me far and wide. Over the years, I have brought my work to life on the road, traveling throughout Western Australia in Sunny the Van to take part in vibrant markets and festivals. These experiences have allowed me to share my passion for vintage fashion, sustainability, and community with an ever-growing network of like-minded people.

Through Sunflower Seed Vintage, I have spent the past seven years breathing new life into timeless, pre-loved treasures. My love for storytelling through vintage fashion reflects my commitment to sustainability and mindful living—a theme that runs through my life. Whether I’m curating for my online shop, hosting community farmers markets, or tending to the gardens, my work is always driven by core values: creativity, connection, and respect for the planet.

With nearly two decades of experience, countless markets across Western Australia, and a life rooted in harmony with nature, I have built a legacy of small businesses that do more than sell a product—they tell a story, build community, and push sustainability.

Thank you so much for being here, it truly means so much to me.
