Latitude partners Alissa Collins and Mark Voss recently traveled to Lega Vera in Panama to explore the land where an agrivillage is taking shape — and to address the real questions behind dreaming of a different way of living.

Modern systems make life easier, but they also make it harder to see what sustains us. Thomas Patton is developing Lega Vera in Panama, a farm village that evolved from regenerative agriculture and a desire to live closer to soil, food, and responsibility.

In south-central Wisconsin, Kevala Retreat offers 68 acres of meadow, forest, and orchard—a rare property that embodies regenerative living through design, ecology, and mindful stewardship.
