Written by the genius himself, Rudolf Steiner argues for a completely natural way to grow plants. Some of his ideas are esoteric and seems a bit "out there," but they've been proven to work. Growing anything biodynamically requires some serious labor intensity. There are wineries in France using these methods -- say, planting grapevines during a certain phase of the moon -- and their wines are considered the best in the world. Be prepared to be blown away. Steiner was way ahead of his time.

I been reading this book more than one time and still amazed at the knowledge offered to us. We can apply these principles to our gardens to recover the fertility of our soils around the world, a great book !!!

We own a 22 year old vineyard and have been organic for over 6 years and now moving toward Biodynamic. We learned a lot from this book and the right way to do many things. It told us that we were doing things right and how to continue to move toward full biodynamic farming. I now am the proud owner of cows and will be following the outline in this book for years to come. Worth reading.
