with Dr Sue Peat and Douglas Davidson

Biodynamics is an organic method of cultivation, arising out of Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual research. It works with the rhythms of the movements of the sun, moon, planets and stars to which the plants respond. The workshop will cover the background to the biodynamic planting calendar and using the biodynamic preparations. It’s spring and so we will focus on sharing tips for sewing and growing food plants – from windowsill herbs to fruit trees. For the last hour we’ll stir the horn manure preparation (known as 500), so bring an empty screw top bottle if you would like to take some home. A 500ml bottle is enough for an average garden. The workshop is suitable for those new to biodynamics and for anyone who would
like to give their garden, window boxes, street trees or house plants a spring treat!

All are welcome, no need to book.

Cost: Full £10, Concession £5 – pay at the door
