Biodynamics offers a holistic approach to growing which can enhance any organic or regenerative growing system. It works with natures rhythms and uses the biodynamic ‘preparations’, 9 soil remedies made from plants and minerals, to create soil fertility and thriving balanced ecosystems.

We will cover the main principles and practices, and you will learn the simple steps needed to get started with biodynamics in your own gardens and properties.
