Biodynamic Gardening Training Day

9 responses

Jim starts with ... Would any of Daley's website readers be interested in attending a 1 day training course in Biodynamic Gardening? There is an introductory Field Day coming up in the Nimbin area on Sat 19 April run by the Biodynamic Gardener's Association. Its especially geared towards home and market gardeners and small holders. People will learn enough in one day to get them started in Biodynamics. Attendance at the Field Day qualifies people for membership in the Biodynamic Gardeners Association. There is some theory included but the emphasis is on hands-on learning. Please feel free to email me if you would like a more detailed information sheet on the day's activities or a registration form.

Dekka says... If your mate seriously thought one cow horn of manure would effectively fertilise 500 acres of melons, then his future as a successful farmer was probably always going to be questionable.

I don't know how much of their success has been due to biodynamics but they produce superb fruit (ie not the tastless supermarket stuff) and get a premium price for it.

Then after a time one digs up the horn and ,voila , something really awesome has happened to the manure ...even in high dilution it has terrific potency.

aNON says... I don't have a prob with the "wholeness" of the concept but the horn manure etc is a complete crock. You even have to stir it in a figure 8 apttern to simulate the ying and yang of the universe.	About the Author aNON 28th March 2008 2:44pm #UserID: 700 Posts: 194 View All aNON's Edible Fruit Trees
