DOWN ON THE FARM 

To find out how farming using lunar cycles is really done, why not visit a farm that uses a Moon-calendar? 

Time spent on a Bio-Dynamic or organic farm offers a chance to 

  • become totally exhausted, 
  • gaze at lovely countryside, 
  • converse with like-minded people, 
  • tune into Nature's rhythms, 
  • sleep like a log, 
  • work with appropriate-scale technology, 
  • taste more delicious food than one can remember, 
  • and ruminate on lunar cycles. 
There are about fifty Bio-Dynamic farms in Britain now.
