Yedora, Grave Gardener
Legendary Creature — Treefolk Druid
Whenever another nontoken creature you control dies, you may return it to the battlefield face down under its owner's control. It's a Forest land. (It has no other types of abilities.)

One angle I like with Raggadragga is Living Lands + Yedora, Grave Gardener. Lands don't lose their mana abilities when they become creatures, and your land-creatures get pumped by RaggaD. When a creature (including a land-creature) dies, it's not a token, so Yedora brings it back as a land, so it goes right back to being a land-creature. Nature's Revolt and Natural Emergence are good, too, but they're less budget friendly or have build-around requirements.
Plus, you can burn out your opponents' Forests with a Pyroclasm or whatever, if you're into mass land destruction.

I started running Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir as a means to protect my combo turns in addition to the flash but yeah his cost is pretty steep. Leyline of Anticipation is nice when in your opening hand and that's about it so I think it might be time for a replacement. I like Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter but what do you think about Skittering Cicada instead? The body isn't as good without flying and the permanent counters but the upside is it dodges a stray Vandalblast or other artifact removal. One downside to these though is they don't let me flash in Yedora, Grave Gardener before I combo off.

I love the use of flash in Kadena! I am almost tempted to buy new cards again because of Yedora, Grave Gardener. Good job on this! +1

Third Gatherer ruling on Yedora, Grave Gardener reads "If one of these Forests is turned face up, the effect making it a Forest land will expire. The face-up permanent will again have its printed name, type line, mana cost, abilities, and so on."
This ruling stems from the fact that Yedora only specifies the characteristics of the card as it exists in the face-down state. If it is turned face-up the printed characteristics take over. This means that unless the front face is a forest Genju of the Cedars will be put into the graveyard for enchanting an illegal permanent.
Since the permanent never left the battlefield and Genju's type changing ability lasts until EoT; it will still be a 4/4 spirit (not sure where the trample was coming from in your question, so can't confirm if it still applies). It will still be the original creature though and Genju's effect just changes type, color, and and sets P/T. So all other characteristics, including abilities, are based on the printed card. In your Akki Underminer example it still has the combat damage trigger.

Sorry I often forgett how to use the syntax to create card links so it is hard if I don't have the text field buttons. I know that there is a combo with Yedora, Grave Gardener and Genju of the Cedars where you basicly activate the effect of the Genju on any Face down card that is a forest to turn it into a 4/4 creature sacrifice it and the creature returns as a face down forest again while Genju is returned to your hand. There are also combos where a Morph creature can be turned face up after Yedora, Grave Gardener returned it to the battlefield as a face down forest and then sacrificed to return as a face down forest again. The issue for me is that I don't know how much the effect of the Genju affects the face down card.

Posting the card links here to help whoever answers this.
The “it’s a forest land” text makes me skeptical that turning the card face-up will change anything, but i’m not confident enough to say either-way.

Are the Forests created by Yedora, Grave Gardener's ability basic or nonbasic? Specifically, how do they interact with Blood Moon?

Adding a type to a non-token land (like what is happening with animating lands) doesn't suddenly make it a token. Tokens by definition are by definition permanents not represented by a card. The land creatures are still non-token creatures and will be returned by Yedora, Grave Gardener
CR 111.1. Some effects put tokens onto the battlefield. A token is a marker used to represent any permanent that isn’t represented by a card.
