Sienna IM and Greenpods finalise financing for a regenerative agriculture farm in Spain
Sienna Investment Managers (Sienna IM), a pan-European multi-expertise asset manager, has granted a loan to GreenPods, a developer of regenerative agricultural projects specialising in the production of nuts and olives in Europe, for its La Esperanza farm located in Aragon, Spain. The orchard already has 30 hectares of almond trees planted, and a further 23 hectares of almond trees and 52 hectares of olive trees will be planted by this summer.
Building on the success of its first farm, La Granja in the Toulouse region in France, which has become the largest organic almond orchard in France, GreenPods acquired the La Esperanza farm with its own funds in May 2024. The €2 million in financing provided by Sienna IM will be used to invest in the planting of almond and olive trees (trees, machinery, irrigation) and for the entire soil and ecosystem rehabilitation programme. To improve the quality of the soil on this farm, GreenPods is following the specifications of organic farming and regenerative agriculture, through regenagri[1] certification.
