In order to foster an ongoing and inclusive conversation about future of the biodynamic movement, we are soliciting brief pieces on the current and hoped-for future state of biodynamics in North America. We would greatly value your input on this issue, with the unique perspectives that you can bring from your particular involvement with biodynamics. We hope this will be the beginning of a continuing exploration in the Biodynamics journal, on the website, and in meetings with members and friends of the Association. More details available here.

The Biodynamic Farming and Gardening Association is now on Facebook. Check out our page and let us know what you'd like to see on there. Please show your support by becoming a fan. We're also posting updates on Twitter @Biodynamic.
