Biodynamics is based upon complete respect for the land and its principles are based on a series of lectures given by Rudolph Steiner in 1924. The overall aim is to create a farm organism where every aspect of the farm is interconnected and working in harmony. There is a focus on seasonal cycles and natural rhythms and working with nature rather than against it.
