About biodynamic food

Biodynamics is a truly holistic and sustainable agriculture. It uses special preparations (BD 500-508) in homeopathic doses, which enhance the soil life, plants and animals. These preparations utilise cow horns, cow dung, crushed quartz crystals, clay and herbs such as yarrow, chamomile, stinging nettle, dandelion, valerian and the bark from an oak tree. Production of biodynamic compost is an essential part of the biodynamic farmer’s arsenal.

Whereas conventional farming primarily focuses on synthetic and chemical responses for plant and animal growth, biodynamics utilises chemical (i.e. minerals), biological and spiritual realms. This results in a deep, well aerated, humus rich soil full of life and beneficial organisms producing a healthy soil encouraging healthy plants and animals. BACK
