Charlie Wild

Charlie Wild is a charming small gift shop filled with accessories to use and enjoy in the outdoors, also showcasing local makers. It is a dream come true for Founder & Owner, Cyndi Pettibone. Cyndi has always had the desire of owning her own small boutique business where she can share her passion for living a creative and active lifestyle with her local community and others around the world!

Taking classes on the side of her full time office gig and conducting informational interviews with those that have been on the same path, Cyndi is determined to not only start her business, but have it thrive! She is hopeful for the day Charlie Wild gets to become her full-time career. Starting as an online shop first, a store front in Marin County will be Cyndi's next step.

You can usually catch Cyndi on a mountain trail either hiking or running, in her kayak in the Bay or local rivers, in the gym weightlifting, at her charming cabin in the woods redecorating, cooking or gardening; and the list could keep going! Having many passions that keep her busy she always makes time to spend with family and friends.

Cyndi's goal for Charlie Wild is for it to become much more than a boutique shop and for it to become a way of life, creating a larger community of people enjoying the outdoors and being kind to one another. Cyndi finds peace and healing in nature and would like to hope that others can enjoy it as much as she does!

Don't be shy and say hi! Do you live locally or will be visiting the Bay Area and want to plan an outside adventure? Let Cyndi know and she would love to come join! Are you a creative maker and want to be featured here on Charlie Wild? Send Cyndi an email to get started.

" Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn."
