In biodynamic farming, the farmer is tasked with creating dynamic relationships with natural systems. These natural features, habitats, syntropic partnerships, and energetic flow are tied together in a deeply complex fabric that makes up the functioning organs of the farm body. In this workshop we will identify and examine these organ systems and discuss best practices for bringing health and vitality into these ecologies through observation, farm design, cultural practice, the biodynamic preparations, and spiritual awareness. This workshop will begin in lecture format and will transition to a hands-on activity where farmers and gardeners are encouraged to bring a map of their operation. In this activity participants will be given the opportunity to evaluate the organ systems of their own growing spaces and begin to develop practices to enhance farm body wellness.
