Using Rudolf Steiner’s agriculture course as a foundation, we will explore “the seed” in its dynamic and complex relationship to the depths of the Earth, the expanses of the cosmos, and the agricultural individuality. Working in large and small groups, through art, movement, plant observation, and hands-on seed work (threshing and winnowing), we will delve into the mysteries of the seed-forming process.
We can change the future of our food, our planet, and ourselves. Learn how by tapping into 8,000 years of collective knowledge at the 9th annual Sustainable Food and Farm Conference in Grass Valley, CA. Featuring world-renowned keynote speakers, field days, farm tours, a host of food and farming workshops, a film hosted by South Yuba River Citizens League, and much more.
The region's premier farm and food gathering is celebrating 20 years! Join us for an extra special three days of deep-dive workshops, farm fresh meals, inspiring speakers, and farmer and foodpreneur learning and networking!
