Thanksgiving made easy with love from Wylder Space
Real food, zero stress, all the gratitude.

THE MENU
Make this the year you’re at the table, not tied to the stove. We’ll handle the cooking. You handle the entertaining and family traditions.
A NOTE FROM MOLLYWhat’s up you beautiful peeps, If your November feels a little hectic, I’ve got you. We’re cooking Thanksgiving so you can be cool as a little cucumber this holiday season, not stuck at the stove. Everything is made from real ingredients, sourced with intention, and prepared by our small but mighty team here in the Santa Cruz Mountains. |  |
FAMILY TRADITIONS
My roots are Southern through and through. My dad is from West Virginia and my mom is from Kentucky, which is why we say dressing instead of stuffing and why creamed onions and hot slaw always show up on the table. These dishes were passed from hand to hand, story to story, and now they live on in our home. I do most of the cooking these days, but every year my mom still prepares the hot slaw and a batch of Murdyl’s Rolls. They’re often like little hockey pucks that never quite rise by the fire, but we look forward to them anyway because it’s tradition. They taste like home.
MAKING MEMORIES WITH YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS
In our house, tradition tasted the same every year, and that was the comfort of it. My mom never budged from her menu: turkey with dressing, hot slaw, creamed onions, broccoli casserole crowned with Ritz crackers and Velveeta, a baked yam with butter, cranberry sauce that slid out of the can with that perfect wobble, and a basket of Murdyl’s Rolls, warm and slathered in butter. Some years Ron Ellis showed up with Grasshopper Pie, all crème de menthe silk in a chocolate cookie wafer crust dolloped with Cool Whip , and other years we kept it classic with pumpkin pie, purchased from Bakers Square in Los Gatos. In the 80s, when the first bread machine landed on our counter, the whole house smelled like a bakery, and we’d break into a loaf that was crunchy outside and light in the middle. This is our simple family tradition that feels more special, every year I get older.

A FINAL NOTE
“I just want to say thank you for being a part of the Wylder Space Fambam. You’ve stuck with us through the busy seasons, late-night prep and the magic of growing a family business. You’ve let us cook for your milestones, your families, your teams, and that means more than you know 💜.
Because of you, we get to keep doing the work we love, sourcing from our farmers, cooking from scratch, and serving meals made with heart. You’ve been part of our story, and I love to be able to say that some of you have been with Wylder for +15 years. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for choosing us, cheering us on, and coming back to the table again and again.”
In gratitude,
Molly Bravo + Team Wylder Space”
