Our Story
Our Founder
Freshly Picked was started by Susan Petersen sewing late nights at her kitchen table in 2009. She discovered a lack of cute baby shoes that wouldn’t fall off her little one’s feet. With that in mind, Freshly Picked was born. Her first pair of leather moccasins were created from yard sale scraps to fit her baby boy’s chubby feet.
With over a million pairs sold, we haven’t lost sight of what matters: we are proud to empower moms with beautiful and functional products.
The First Pair
“The hope I have for Freshly Picked customers is that our products mark a time in their life that just goes so quickly. My kids are older now, and I wish sometimes that I could go back to those little feet and those little hands... I hope our products are used as a keepsake to mark this moment in your child’s life in a beautiful and memorable way.“
