About Us
At Shallow Brook Drive we're committed to our values of hard work and honesty, and to carrying goods that support building a life—not a resume. Step inside if you're nostalgic for a simpler life, have a passion for the outdoors and wild birds, and pride in your home. Find us in the garage, the backyard, the space between the ax and the woodpile carrying log after log.
Founded in 2017, the seeds for Shallow Brook Drive were planted long before. Growing up in the suburbs of Detroit, a passion for building a life was instilled in me at a young age. After college, I dedicated myself to my career in advertising, but it was the time I spent with my Dad that meant the most—splitting wood in the backyard, building additions to his house, working on project after project in the garage (furniture, a picket fence, a cupola!), and sipping lemonades on the back patio—bird watching and tossing the ball for my dog, Lucy.

It was during those moments that my love of the outdoors and desire to build a company that would support and nurture others appreciation of nature was born.
Shallow Brook Drive is that place. We welcome you to the community and wish you happy birding and beyond! Keep on #LookingUp.
All my best,
Sara Hartman
