Sharefarming solution as soaring land prices keeps young hemp oil producers out of property market

As land prices soar on the North Coast of New South Wales, aspiring young farmers Hanna Navara and Leon Hoffmann-Detenhoff turned to sharefarming as an alternative to owning their own land.

Ms Navara, 28, has spent the past three years studying alternative farming methods such as permaculture and regenerative farming.

She was originally looking to run a market garden but turned her attention towards hemp — particularly seeds and oil.
