Women’s Leadership Collective – Sarah Jane Ahrens of Love & Dirt Roads

Sarah Jane Ahrens turned cherished childhood memories into a business that celebrates the beauty of home, history, and meaningful spaces. Inspired by the family farm and barn of her grandparents in rural Minnesota, she created Love & Dirt Roads as a way to preserve those memories and share the warmth they represent with others.

What began as a love for farmhouse style, vintage treasures, and timeless décor has grown into a business rooted in creativity and nostalgia. Through her shop and booth spaces at the Best of Janesville and Best of Beloit Vintage Malls, Sarah carefully curates pieces that feel lived-in, welcoming, and full of character. For her, every item has a story, and every space has the opportunity to become a place where new memories are made.

Outside of her business, Sarah continues to find inspiration in simple living, meaningful connections, and the quiet beauty found down old dirt roads. Her passion for creating spaces that feel like home is reflected in everything she does, from the pieces she selects to the experiences she creates for her customers. 

Leadership, to Sarah, means honoring the past, inspiring creativity, and creating spaces where memories can continue to grow.
