    Eric Dinger--Wild Places, Wild People, and the Future of Land

    Send a text In this episode, we sit down with Eric Dinger—entrepreneur, conservation advocate, and proud Nebraskan—who has built a career at the intersection of business, land stewardship, and the outdoors. Eric is the founder of Landoption, a new platform helping farmers and landowners unlock additional income from their land by connecting them with opportunities like carbon markets, conservation incentives, renewable energy development, and regenerative agriculture programs. Landoption aims to simplify a complex and rapidly growing ecosystem of land-based programs, helping producers find the options that best fit their land and their goals. But as you’ll hear in this conversation, Landoption is just the latest chapter in Eric’s entrepreneurial journey. From building companies to advancing conservation initiatives, his work has consistently focused on strengthening the connection between people, land, and the outdoors. At the center of Eric’s philosophy is a simple idea he often repeats: we need both “wild places and wild people.” Because if people never experience the outdoors, they’ll never feel compelled to protect it. In this conversation, we talk about entrepreneurship in the heartland, the future of land-based revenue for farmers, the role of markets in conservation, and why reconnecting people to the outdoors may be one of the most important investments we can make.
