Top 50 Farmers

Top 50 Farmers Top 50 Farmers empowers European regenerative farmers and inspires the next generation to step into the field.

10/10/2026

At The Story Farms in Somerset, UK, Luke Hasell is working towards a 1,000-year vision to regenerate millions of hectares by farming in harmony with nature.

After his father’s passing in 2003, Luke left a career in civil engineering in London to return to the fields of his childhood. Facing soil exhausted by decades of industrial agriculture, he made a radical choice.

Over two decades later, Luke’s journey has grown from organic production into a much bigger vision for ecological renewal.

But Luke knows that a vision of this scale cannot be achieved by one farmer alone.

For him, regeneration is about collaboration, building a community and a movement of people who believe in regenerative stewardship.

That belief is also what brought Luke to apply for Top 50 Farmers.

Being part of a community of farmers actively pushing for positive change gives Luke the opportunity to connect with others, share ideas and contribute to a wider movement for change in agriculture.

You can probably name your favourite chef. But could you name a farmer who inspires you? For many of us, that question is harder to answer.

And that tells us something about the relationship we have with our food.

We know the brands. We know the supermarkets. We know the chefs.

But the people who grow our food often remain invisible.

Behind every meal are farmers making decisions about soil, water, biodiversity, animals, crops and the communities around them.

It’s time we knew more of the people behind our food, and recognised the vital role they play in shaping its future.

Visibility matters.

When farmers and their work become more visible, their knowledge can travel further, new relationships and opportunities can emerge, and more people can see what is already happening on farms across Europe.

Farmers are working with nature, regenerating soils and biodiversity, and showing in practice what the future of farming can look like.

Some of the farmers shaping the future of agriculture rarely put themselves forward.

They may not realise that what they are doing could inspire others, or how valuable their knowledge and experience could be beyond their own farm.

That’s where you come in.

Do you know an inspiring farmer in Europe who is working with nature? Help us discover them!

Here are four ways you can spread the word:

1️⃣ Recommend a farmer using the link in our bio
2️⃣ Tag them in the comments below
3️⃣ Share this post with your network
4️⃣ Send this directly to a farmer you think should apply

By recommending a farmer, you’re recognising their work and encouraging them to become part of a growing European community where farmers share knowledge, build relationships and discover new opportunities.

You know your farm can be part of something bigger.

You’re working with nature to regenerate soils and biodiversity, build a resilient farm business and leave your farm in a better place for the next generations.

And there is a lot we can learn from each other.

When farmers come together across countries and generations, they can exchange knowledge, learn from each other’s experiences, build meaningful relationships and see new possibilities for their own farms.

If you’re working towards a regenerative future and want to share what you know while learning from others, Top 50 Farmers could be for you.
