We’re getting a lot of queries on where to learn about Biodynamic farming. I have friends who offer short courses and workshops on Biodynamic Farming:
Greg Kitma of Philippine Bio-Dynamic Agriculture Research Foundation – offers it usually as a lecture or a 2-day workshop in Baguio or at the ISIP Center in Makati (Palma corner Manalac Sts.)
Prado Farms, Lubao Pampanga- A working biodynamic farm that offers a 2 day workshop with a biodynamic feast! Ask ISIP when the next Practical Abundance Training will be.
