Who are we ?

Kev the lead instructor and owner has been practising bushcraft for 15 years, having spent a full career in the British forces and being a lead role in Fieldcraft (living in the field) you learn a huge amount from the forces but they do not do a great deal in the bushcraft arena, post teaching qualification he has taken on more and qualifying in bow making basket making and foraging courses.

Once out of the forces he returned to the cadets and taught many subject and commanded different squadrons in Kent.

Totally wild is a relatively new endeavour, which is more for the love of bushcraft and the outdoors than a business. but allowing people to experience the outdoors is what brings the smile.
