From botanical cookies, acorn coffee and wild green pesto, to making your own calendula salve and building a bird house, The Wild Craft is filled with seasonal nature-based projects designed to reignite your love of the natural world and connect you to the earth.
Each of the four seasons is divided into three sections: In The Kitchen, Making and Gardening. Every project will celebrate the wonder and beauty of nature and encourage readers to slow down and reconnect to the wild in a holistic and gentle way. With step-by-step instructions throughout, Catarina Seixas will take you through each project, so that even beginners can enjoy the mood-boosting benefits of a craft-filled year.
Peppered with information on seasonal plants to look out for and stunning photography by Ana Zilhão, The Wild Craft will inspire the reader to develop their connections with the world around them and and bring the spirit of nature into their own home.

““Split into the four seasons, the rustic pages of this enticing book epitomise ‘craftivism’, the ‘at-home’ form of activism that uses crafts to back away from consumerism.””
““Cat’s slow and seasonal way of life in the hills of central Portugal is encapsulated in her first book Wild Craft. (...) Photography by Ana Zilhão captures Cat’s idyllic setting and her creative ideas beautifully, quite possibly making you want to up sticks and head to those Portuguese hills yourself!””
