Kevin’s series ‘From The Wild ’ is in season 4 of production\, sharing his journey exploring the outdo ors through a culinary lens - hunting\, fishing\, and foraging through all seasons in a wide array of ecoregions\, ultimately seeking to put up a te rroir-driven plate of wild food. Kevin’s series has hosted the likes of Hank Shaw [wild food writer\, Sacramento]\, Amanda Cohen [Dirt Candy\, NYC ]\, Blair Lebsack [RGE RD\, Edmonton]\, Connie DeSousa and John Jackson [C harcut\, Charbar Calgary]\, among many others. Kevin has also worked on th e most recent iteration of Cook It Raw\, this time in Norway\, for a secon d round of adventures with founder Alessandro Porcelli. On deck is launchi ng a series of food skills workshops called ‘Food Workshop’\, with a v iew to enabling access to the best food around at lower than box store pri ces\, by teaching fundamental food skills [butchery\, gardening\, charcute rie\, cider making\, etc.] to the at-home cook. @kevinkossowan\n\n\n\nBio- Jeff Senger\n\nIn 2010\, Jeff Senger left his boring office job to own an d operate a Provincially licensed slaughterhouse and meat processing facil ity in Sangudo\, Alberta. With over ten thousand hours invested learning t he arts of humane slaughter\, meat cutting\, sausage making\, marketing an d small business management\, Jeff became emotionally and physically scarr ed and exhausted.\n\nOn a quest to recuperate during his days off\, Jeff j oined his longtime friend and filmmaker Kevin Kossowan on regular poorly t hought out adventures in a quest to search for the meaning of Wild Food in Alberta.  The ‘From the Wild’ film series features Kevin\, Jeff\, an d a host of interesting guests exploring wild harvested flora and fauna an d is currently working on filming its fourth complete season. Battling the ethics and morality of a largely dysfunctional food system in an ignorant and compliant culture dominated by corporate consumerism keeps Jeff worki ng to tell the stories that most people just don’t want to hear.
