MOON GARDENING & BIODYNAMICS
|
Humankind started farming in the Nile valley over 10,000 years ago. Our ancestors watched the rhythms of the heavens, and
made connections between the patterns in the night-sky and the effects of the moon, planets, and stars on their bodies, the
oceans, and on their gardens.
Over the centuries as farming spread, they determined the best times to plant and harvest their crops, as well as for
animal husbandry, beekeeping, and timber felling. This knowledge was handed down through the generations in oral and written
tradition.
With the development of chemical fertilisers in the 20th century, these principles were largely forgotten or ignored;
Rudolf Steiner helped to revive and consolidate some of these Lunar Gardening traditions by developing his Biodynamic farming
techniques.

MOON GARDENING CALENDAR
Our calendar follows biodynamic principles, and is colour-coded to show the different moon phases, paths, and constellations
for each day of the year. You can choose the best days for various tasks by using the right colour combination.

BIODYNAMIC SEEDS
We supply Biodynamic seeds that are colour-coded for use with the Moon Gardening calendar, so you can easily grow biodynamic
produce.
