About the channel
Wildwood Cottage is a UK frugal living channel inspired by wartime rationing, 1940s cookbooks, Dig for Victory gardening, and simple living. In 2026, I’m taking on a long-term wartime living challenge, following WWII ration books, budget cooking, and make do and mend skills to reduce our food costs, live debt-free, and save towards retirement — while learning from the resilience and wisdom of the past. Living in rural Wales on the edge of a forest, I garden on a slope in a rainy coastal valley, sharing the real challenges of growing food, cooking from scratch, and living simply during the cost-of-living crisis. All of this is done with gratitude to God for what we already have. Here you’ll find: • Wartime ration cooking • 1940s food challenges • Frugal living UK inspiration • Dig for Victory gardening • Simple, homemade meals • No-waste & budget living You’re very welcome here 🤍
