Biodynamic Agriculture was inaugurated in 1924 by Austrian scientist Rudolf Steiner. A worldwide movement, biodynamic agriculture is the oldest, non-chemical agricultural movement and pre-dates organic agriculture by some twenty years. Biodynamic farming and gardening does more than avoid chemicals; it seeks to work actively with the health-giving forces of nature. Farms and wineries, among others, may be certified Biodynamic by the Demeter USA Association, a national, independent, non-profit corporation.
The Biodynamic Farming and Gardening Association was formed in the U.S. in 1938. It is a non-profit, membership organization and is open to the public. The purpose of the Association is to foster knowledge of the practices and principles of the biodynamic method of agriculture, horticulture, and forestry in the North American continent and to advance the applications of this method through educational activities such as research, lectures, conferences; publishing and distributing literature on the biodynamic methods; and supporting consultation and extension services to farmers, gardeners, and foresters. It may undertake other charitable activities related to such principal purpose.
The Association organizes conferences, workshops, and seminars and publishes books and a quarterly membership journal, Biodynamics. The Association supports regional, grass-roots membership associations and funds more formal research and training institutions. Please join the Biodynamic Association's renewal of agriculture, health, and nutrition.
