Our Story

Where wildness, wonder, and reimagining land come to life.

We’re Katie and Luke - nature lovers, storytellers, and the hearts behind Wild Finca, a family-run rewilding farm in the lush green mountains of Northern Spain.

Once globe-trotting wildlife storytellers, we spent years documenting nature’s beauty and fragility - from peregrine falcons in Chicago to otters in Singapore, hyenas in Harar to Iberian lynx in Andalucía. But as the stories grew heavier, and burnout crept in, we felt called to do more than observe.

We needed to restore.

In 2018, that shift brought us here, to a forgotten dairy farm. The land was tired. So were we. But something magical happened: we exhaled. The ground felt right beneath our feet. We began to root.

Wild Finca now stands on two interwoven pillars:

  1. Family Nature Connection

As parents raising two wild-hearted boys, we’ve seen the magic that unfolds when children spend time in nature.

Mud becomes medicine. Beetles become teachers. Wonder becomes the doorway to care.

But we’ve also seen the quiet cost of a modern childhood spent indoors - where screens steal attention, imagination, and connection.

That’s why our new venture, The Wild Shift, is dedicated to helping families rediscover what’s real - guiding parents to gently reduce screen time and rebuild bonds through daily moments of nature connection.

It’s not about perfection or unplugging completely - it’s about coming home to what matters most: presence, curiosity, and awe.

If you’re longing to see your children look up from the screen and back to the sky - this is for you.

The Wild Shift is launching soon - our flagship mentorship helps families cut screen time by 50% in five weeks, through nature-led rituals, language tools, and community support.

Because when children fall in love with the wild world, they grow up wanting to protect it.

2. Small-Scale Rewilding

What was once overgrazed monoculture pasture is now a vibrant patchwork of wildflower meadows, ponds, forest edges, and wildlife corridors - home to over 113 bird species, 30 mammals (including 16 bat species!), and rare plants like the delicate Autumn Lady’s Tresses orchid.

We believe rewilding isn’t just for vast landscapes or big organisations.

It begins in gardens, balconies, schoolyards - in noticing what’s already there, and making space for more life to return. It grows through connection. It thrives when humans remember we belong to the web of life - not apart from it.

At Wild Finca, rewilding means:

  • Letting nature lead, while working alongside her

  • Restoring ecological rhythms - and our own

  • Making space for both the wild and the human

This is a lived landscape, where people and nature grow side by side.

Our Mission

To inspire and equip families, communities, and curious minds to reconnect with nature and restore it - wherever they are.

Our Vision is Rooted in Three Principles:

  1. Inspire Authentic Connection
    Nurturing deep, joyful relationships with the natural world - ones that stir both the heart and the senses.

  2. Equip with Practical Wisdom
    Sharing accessible, real-life tools for rewilding and nature connection - no perfection required.

  3. Cultivate Holistic Well-being
    Because when we care for land, it cares for us. Restoration flows both ways.

Whether you’re dreaming of rewilding your land, your family, or simply your way of living - you’re welcome here!
