Professional Education in Ecological Agriculture and Biodynamics


Welcome to my homepage. It is about healthy, clean, safe, ecologically produced and spiritually energized food. It is also about biodynamic agriculture as a path of farming and gardening - on the one hand: both practical and philosophical - because understanding the philosophy allows you to use the practical methods in effective, adaptable and authentic ways. It informs the practice, that otherwise can be a tapping in the dark. On the other hand (hand-in-hand) biodynamics is a path of learning that helps us understand, sense and experience the spiritual in nature, ourselves and the universe. 

Doing something, just because someone says so, is not enough. It leaves you uniformed and unfree. Seeking a real understanding of why leads to a whole world of how, when and what. Know why and you are freer. Of course, life is complex and there are no one-sided or for-sure answers. Just seeking, however, to understand the philosophy of biodynamics will give you so much more independence, opportunity and joy - AND success in your daily gardening and farming. 

There are also pages on related topics, such as agroecology and deep ecology - organics and permaculture and there will be more about other topics to come. There will also be pages on the inner development of farmers and gardeners, about such topics as meditation, enhanced observation and other ways of experiencing more of all that nature truly is. Last, but not least, there will also be pages on Rudolf Steiner, the inaugurator of biodynamics, his philosophy and spiritual science. 

Not all pages are complete, some need updating and new ones will appear from time to time. I wish you well on your journey.

Sincerely, 
Andrew
