Be Wilds

Welcome to Wilds magazine.

The magazine all about spending time outdoors. Time with your family, time with your friends, time making bits and time crafting memories. Time enjoying the small things, time having the best time.

I’m Hester, the editor of Wilds, and I am a very outdoorsy person. If it was up to me I would be outside from 7 till 7. Have my breakfast in the garden, do all my work in the outdoor breeze and have my dinner as a picnic somewhere. My toddler is pretty much the same and after the turbulent year we have had I think a lot of people have realised the outdoor world is very important for their wellbeing. When all of us were housebound, all of a sudden the importance of  just going outside to feel the wind on your face became apparent. The dream would be to have a small homestead somewhere or maybe travel the world  exploring nature in our van but those two options are not very realistic for most people. That’s why I wanted to start Wilds, to show you don’t need to be a farmer or van lifer to enjoy an outdoorsy life. With Wilds I hope to inspire you to go out, to explore, to learn and to gather materials for craft projects. This can be in your own back garden, your local park, a forest nearby or something further a field.
