What is Biodynamic?

Biodynamics is a science of life-forces, a recognition of the basic principles at work in nature, and an approach to agriculture which takes these principles into account to bring about balance and healing. In a very real way, then, Biodynamics is an ongoing path of knowledge rather than an assemblage of methods and techniques.

Biodynamics is part of the work of Rudolf Steiner , known as anthroposophy - a new approach to science which integrates precise observation of natural phenomena, clear thinking, and knowledge of the spirit. It offers an account of the spiritual history of the Earth as a living being, and describes the evolution of the constitution of humanity and the kingdoms of nature. Some of the basic principles of Biodynamics are:

• Broaden Our Perspective
• Reading The Book Of Nature
• Cosmic Rhythms
• Plant Life Is Intimately Bound Up With The Life Of The Soil
• New View Of Nutrition
• Medicine For The Earth: Biodynamic Preparations
• The Farm As The Basic Unit Of Agriculture
• Economics Based On Knowledge Of The Job
