About Of Forest & Fog

Nestled in the lush heart of East Gippsland, Of Forest & Fog is a small creative studio devoted to moss, terrariums, and the quiet beauty of the natural world.
Each piece is foraged, crafted, or curated by hand, a meeting of patience, soil, and imagination.
We believe in slowing down, treading lightly, and finding wonder in the small, green things that thrive in the shade.
