Helen Andrew is a regenerative systems thinker, social entrepreneur, and community weaver who has spent the last decade working to activate change for a better future. Passionate about regeneration, community resilience, and the power of connection, Helen has dedicated her life to reimagining how we live, produce, and relate to each other and to the land.

Today, Helen is nurturing Yarn and Yield — a community cooperative growing regenerative, locally rooted impact enterprises across four living branches: knowledge, capital, agriculture, and wellbeing. Anchored to land in West Woombye, Yarn and Yield is both a proving ground and a sanctuary — a place where community flourishes through mutual support, regenerative mindsets, and ecological connection.

In this new phase of her journey, Helen is leaning fully into her role as a purpose weaver and community activator — cultivating spaces where people can gather, share, heal, grow, and co-create a future that honours life in all its forms. Through hands-on action, storytelling, and systems thinking, she is weaving the threads of regeneration — nurturing a living economy that yields nourishment, not just returns.

Helen’s journey is one of hope: for a world where systems serve life, communities are creators, and the economy delivers not just profit — but purpose, belonging, and renewal. When not co-creating with her community, you’ll find Helen in her garden, tending the living systems that inspire her every day.
