Our Story

Wild by Nature was born when my brother in law Ed and I left our jobs in the city and moved back to where we had grown up in the Welsh borders, with a shared desire to be closer to nature and to grow, cook and share the food from our farm. I had spent six years working in kitchens across the world and Ed, a keen outdoorsman, had a burning desire to get involved in farming, a change from his day job as a sales manager at John Lewis. It started with a few sheep, some cattle and a handful of unruly pigs and has since grown to include our on-farm butchery, wedding venue, farmhouse retreat, Pub and a second farm. Along with my wife Amie and our incredible team we love sharing the rugged beauty of the Black Mountains with our guests.
