Enrenfried Pfeiffer an early Biodynamic Pioneer wrote, “How can it happen that the spiritual impulse, and especially the inner schooling for which you are constantly providing stimulus and guidance, bear so little fruit? Why do the people concerned give so little evidence of spiritual experience, in spite of their efforts? Why worst of all, is the will for action, for the carrying out of these spiritual impulses, so weak?” Rudolf Steiner replied, “This a problem of nutrition. Nutrition as it is today does not supply the strength necessary for manifesting the spirit in physical life. A bridge can no longer be built from thinking to will and action. Food plants no longer contain the forces people need for this.”

May Farm Update





Plants are finally starting to grow as the soil continues to warm up. Many crops have already been planted: Pea, radish, turnip, beet, carrot, spinach, cilantro, potato, cabbage, broccoli, chard, parsley and lettuce. May will bring us great growing conditions as well as long days of work. The fruit of our labor and your support should start showing up on dinner tables sometime in June.

The bee hives are doing well and more balanced since Jack worked on them. It won't be too long until they start pollinating what will eventually become your food.
