We are pleased to announce that our 72nd AGM event will take place on Saturday, 18th October 2025.

Join us for a great day with members, trustees and staff looking at the past, present and future of BDA activity in the UK plus  a farm visit to round it off.

Share with us your thoughts and views on our special celebratory year of 2024 – what should we take from it and make more of: workshops, events in London, Awards, skill-sharing. What was special for you? Share with trustees and staff what is important to you and what you think the BDA should do more of or get better at? What are the key areas for focus going forward, what do you think are the priorities for the 2025-30 Strategy – lets share and explore together to help the development of the next BDA strategy.

This consultation is followed by the AGM, which includes a statutory review and an opportunity for trustees to be accountable to you, the members. The BDA is still seeking another trustee – are you interested in strategy, governance and enabling the organisation to continue to develop with the times?

The afternoon offers an opportunity to see biodynamics in action via a farm tour of Valehead Farm, which is just a few miles outside Stourbridge.

The event is free of cost/donations, which can be made on the day or at the time of booking.

Members and non-members are welcome to attend all or part of the day.
