Deep Seed - Regenerative Agriculture Rewind #4 - How LENTELAND is Rethinking Land Ownership in Farming [ELINE VENINGA]
What if farms were owned by communities... and managed for generations to come? 🌱
In this #REWIND episode, we revisit a powerful moment with Eline Veninga, co-founder of Lenteland, a groundbreaking initiative in the Netherlands that’s rethinking land ownership, farmer succession, and regenerative agriculture from the ground up.
Eline breaks down the structural barriers young farmers face — from sky-high land prices to outdated financial systems — and how Lenteland’s community-owned, farmer-led model offers a radically hopeful alternative.
She also shares how Lenteland supports farmers with training, team-building, and long-term security — creating a new path for regenerative farmers to thrive, not just survive.
