uncultivated

Left to nature

Uncultivated describes land that has not been prepared or used for growing crops—left wild or fallow rather than tilled and planted: uncultivated fields reverted to scrubland.

Applied to people, it means lacking refinement or education, rough in manners or mind: His uncultivated tastes ran to cheap beer and loud music.
