INTRODUCTION TO BIODYNAMIC
AGRICULTURE
Del McComb Saturday, November 20
10:30 – 12:00 $31
Introduced by the Austrian philosopher, scientist, and
mystic Rudolf Steiner in 1925, this early form of holistic
gardening is practiced worldwide today by growing
numbers. Participants will be given an introduction to
the philosophical background of Biodynamics. You will
be taken through the basic techniques. A description
of the eight unique herbal preparations used will be
given, along with ideas on how to work with cosmological
rhythms in the garden. Additionally, participants
will be taken through a step-by-step explanation
of one of the preparations that will help demonstrate
how Biodynamic Agriculture is based on an exacting
science, not in the way formulas are precise, but in the
way poems are. Learn how to integrate biodynamic
practices into your current gardening methods.
