How can you join forces with others to make things happen that couldn’t have done on your own?

When the first milking machines were invented during the industrial revolution, they were too expensive for individual farmers to buy. Their solution was to pool their capital and found cooperative dairies so they could benefit from the joint ownership of machinery.

In addition to its impact on farming the principle of collective ownership inspired other trades, like housing, insurance, slaughterhouses, and shops to follow suit.

Since then, many Danes have made their dreams come true by joining forces in various cooperative movements – today Danes come together to tackle the challenges of our times, like in Andelsgårde where old farms are reimagined on the principles of regeneration, permaculture, and biodiversity.
