About

Writing these articles helps me improve my understanding of biodynamics. I am involved with the practical aspects of biodynamic agriculture on a daily basis tutoring horticulture to young people with learning difficulties. I am also on the board of a community owned biodynamic farm, in Stroud. By publishing articles such as this one, it pushes me to research the theoretical side of biodynamics, and creates a space where I can share what I have learned.

Recently, I have started a MA in Practical Skill Therapeutic Education with Ruskin Mill and Huddersfield University which will enable me to study and explore biodynamics in depth. I will share my work from the course on here. I also write a daily rhythmic biodynamic message which is published each day on tetragrammaton.com.

Please contact me with any questions, querys, or ideas, I would love to hear from you and I will try and email you back as soon as I can. My email is below.
