Welcome to Wylder!  

My name is Molly and food is my medium for connection.  It's an honor to connect with you.

Meet Molly Bravo

Founder and Creative Spirit behind Wylder Space

Back in 2004, I had this wild dream that wouldn't let me go. I wanted to show people the magic of real food – not just what ends up on their plate, but the whole beautiful journey from our farmers and how we source ingredients, to the meals we choose to nurture people with. For nearly 20 years now, I've been on an incredible adventure, getting my hands dirty in the real food movement, supporting our local CSAs. Food is and always will be, my medium for connection.
This journey took an unexpected turn when I sat down to interview my 88-year-old father. What started as a simple desire to preserve his stories for my son Spicoli blossomed into something much bigger. As I began collecting wisdom from our elders – their stories of growing food, cooking from scratch, and gathering around tables – I realized this was exactly what I'd been trying to share through Wylder Space all along.
Today, our mission has deepened. Whether we're catering your special event or sharing the wisdom of our elders through our "Nourishing Traditions" course, we're all about getting back to our roots. The way our grandparents did things – simple, intentional, connected to the land and to each other.
From our little slice of paradise in the Santa Cruz Mountains, we're preserving traditions, building community, and bringing people back to what matters most: real food, prepared with love.
At Wylder Space, every gathering we cater and every tradition we teach is an invitation to step out of the rush and into a slower, simpler way of being. As always, it's an honor to connect and we're so grateful to have this opportunity to cook for you 💜


 

Our Mission

At Wylder Space, we’re reimagining catering by focusing on what truly matters:

  • Real Food: We source directly from local farmers – real people we've known for years who grow food with intention and care. This isn't just about checking a "local" box; it's about supporting the folks who make honest food possible and knowing exactly where every ingredient on your plate comes from.
  • Authenticity: In our kitchen, we lean into traditional methods – fermentation, pickling, preservation and slow food. They're the backbone of how we cook, passed down through generations.  
  • Connection: When we create an event experience, we're thinking beyond the menu. We're crafting spaces where people naturally slow down and settle in. Where conversations flow easily and the usual distractions fall away. It's amazing what happens when you gather people around the dinner table.  I've always said, there are 2 things that will bring people together anywhere in the world- one is a smile and the other is a home cooked meal.
