Learn about Biodynamic gardening, a gardening technique that follows nature's rhythms, and harvest vegetables that are richer in taste and nutrients. Hilary Wright's Biodynamic Gardening for Health and Taste will become your guide to Biodynamic gardening and the lessons from Rudolf Steiner.

Biodynamics is a farming and gardening technique pioneered by the revolutionary Rudolf Steiner at the beginning of the 20th century. Biodynamic Gardening for Health and Taste details how to use biodynamic techniques to restore fertility to our gardens and work with the rhymes of nature to produce more nutrient-rich, flavorful foods.

In recent decades organic and biodynamic gardening has shot from obscurity to front-page news. Any gardener who already works with biodynamics will tell you the difference it has made to their garden. From crisper lettuce to more intensely-flavored onions, biodynamics is a great way to grow beautiful plants and tasty, nutrient-packed fruits and vegetables.

Discover how the rhythms of the moon, sun, stars and plants influence your garden, creating ideal periods in which to sow, weed and harvest plants for optimum flavor and nutrition. Through straightforward advice and illustrations, Hilary Wright's practical guide shows how even the novice gardener can use biodynamic techniques to produce a healthy, abundant garden.
