An Introduction to Gardening the Biodynamic Way with Dr Sue Peat and Douglas Davidson Sunday 16 February 2pm – 5pm

February 16 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Venue:  Rudolf Steiner House, 35 Park Rd, London NW1 6XT
Biodynamics is an organic method of cultivation arising out of Rudolf Steiner’s Spiritual research. It was his response to questions from farmers who were unhappy with  ‘chemical’ agriculture. Biodynamics 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 coming up to spring, so we will focus on sharing tips for preparing your garden,  allotment or pots for the growing season.

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 or house plants a spring treat!

Sue and Douglas are enthusiastic gardeners with lots of practical experience of  biodynamic gardening.
All welcome, no need to book.   Full £10 / Concession £5
