THE PRACTICES. The biodynamic method applies special preparations which enhance the life forces and bring vibrancy to life processes of the earth, the soil and the plants. Applying these special preparations in harmony with the rhythms of the greater cosmos is the art of bio-dynamics.

Cycles of the moon as well as the other planets play an important role in the practices of biodynamic agriculture. Biodynamic practices improve the vitality or life force, as well as the taste of food. For this reason biodynamic methods are increasingly utilized for growing wine grapes throughout the world. Biodynamic practices are also solidly based on time-tested farming practices.

There is no magic to biodynamic agriculture that enables us to skip any steps in proper soil, water, and land conservation management. Good farming practices begin with providing the soil with what it needs to thrive and thereby create the right conditions for food crops with high nutritional value.

First we serve the soil, then, the soil, which we can understand to be a kind of living will to yield life, will serve us by providing us with food that nourishes not only our physical bodies, by also stimulates the forces of life within us that penetrate the physical body and creates life, health and harmony.

Healing and Balance are key principles that stand behind our work in the field and garden.
