  • 5 Actionable Steps to Making Sweden’s Food System Regenerative [Sara Maxence]
    Mar 5 2025

    🌱 Can We Make an Entire Food System Regenerative?


    Sweden’s food system isn’t regenerative—at least, not yet. But Sara Maxence is working to change that. With a background in big agri-food corporations, she’s seen firsthand the challenges of shifting towards sustainability. Now, she’s leading an effort to bring farmers, processors, and policymakers together to explore how Sweden can transition from an extractive, industrial food model to one that is more diverse, resilient, and soil-friendly.


    In this episode, we dive into the early steps of this journey: breaking down silos, testing new financing models, and creating real demand for regenerative crops. If you’re curious about how regenerative agriculture can scale beyond individual farms—and what needs to change at the system level—this episode is packed with valuable insights and fresh ideas.


    🌾 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:


    ✅ Why our food system is stuck—and how to start shifting it

    ✅ How Sweden’s farmers are experimenting with regenerative practices

    ✅ The challenge of selling diverse, soil-friendly crops in a wheat-dominated market

    ✅ How digital tools and financing models could accelerate the transition

    ✅ Why Europe’s agricultural policies (CAP) can both help and hinder change


    Sweden is early in this process, but Sara’s work offers a fascinating case study on what it takes to move from concept to action. Listen now to explore the opportunities and challenges of making food systems truly regenerative!
