We’re excited to announce the launch of the Landscape Hub Cultivator (LHC), a new initiative of Regenerate Cascadia beginning in late fall 2025. This year-long pilot will support up to 10 Landscape Groups across the Cascadia Bioregion to learn together, experiment in practice, and co-create the foundations of what we call a Landscape Hub—a key organizing structure for long-term bioregional regeneration and financing.
As part of the LHC, participating Landscape Groups join Regenerate Cascadia under our 501(c)(3) umbrella, receiving the full benefits of nonprofit fiscal sponsorship while remaining rooted in their own places and communities. Landscape Groups bring together people and organizations who want to collaborate as part of a broader bioregional strategy grounded in relationship to land, trust, and shared stewardship.
The Landscape Hub Cultivator is a structured cohort-based community of practice. Each Landscape Group will be represented by 2–3 Landscape Stewards who will participate in bi-weekly online learning sessions, peer exchange, mentorship, and applied activities. Together, participants will explore how to interrupt extractive systems, practice participatory governance, and build the infrastructure needed to attract and steward regenerative funding.
During the first six months, groups will co-create place-based regeneration strategies, including bioregional mapping, layers of stewardship, and portfolios of regenerative projects supported by budgets and story decks. The second half of the pilot will focus on team development, governance, fundraising strategies, and local funding ecosystems, while remaining attentive to bioregional carrying capacity and context-based indicators.
We see Landscape Hubs as the pilot for bioregions globally; the broader bioregional movement—supporting coordination, learning, and resource flow at the scale of watersheds and regions. The LHC pilot is an invitation to learn by doing as we steward the Emergence of Cascadia Landscape Hubs and the next phase of regenerative work across Cascadia.
