good folk
Salt of earth
Good folk is a polite or affectionate term for decent, kind-hearted people: The good folk of this town have always looked out for each other.
In older or literary usage, "the good folk" or "good people" was a euphemism for fairies or supernatural beings—a way of speaking about them without giving offense or attracting their attention.
