yep, sure looking forward to chatting in person, K.C.too,although he says he's only going to listen..You are scaring me sstorch, I just signed on for the Steiner library, having been deprived of any armchair or other anthrophosopy.I've been just to busy raising kids and pulling weeds. I come to biodynamics as some do from the ground up, not the books down, but as Steiner said, it was an attempt to get the farmers and the science together, which does require mutual respect and understanding,THe farmers need to read books and understand the thoughts and the scientist need to get down and dirty .literally!Not that I'm a farmer, My ancesters were,these days one is servant to the industry, unless you have a rare niche support system.. by the way , did you try Joe Stevens valerian remedy?I blew any experimental value by applying it to the whole place.. now what?I always have a problem figuring results anyway. everything is so variable, and I'm too busy to be an accurate scientist, not my thing.got to muck stalls, fix supper ,ect... my definition if something works is awesome taste or, production in adversity which is mostly the norm here. curious though if you experimented with the valerian.we'redoing a little experiment with horsetail here.We have a hard time establishing arvense, but have hymale growing everywhere, so we're trying fernenting hymale. so far it smells good., need to sleep love to all,:)sharon ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 25, 2002 10:40 PM Subject: Re: BDA conf
