Biodynamics

Permaculturists don't bury cow horns full of cow manure, or practice planting by the moon or use BD 500, or any of the other formulas used by those who follow biodynamics Sorry for the delay - I was away in Danmark and Sweden for a few days and it was a fabulous trip. Yes, permaculture is very close to biodynamics. Both have a base in organic principles but that is about where the similarity ends. I have used planting by the moon for years, but not entirely rigid to the calendar though. Also the philosophy of permies and biodynamics are identical, a holistic and spriritual approach to nature and the human being. Both are based on the research by Steiner Steiner has had nothing to do with the development of Permaculture. Permaculture was originally the idea of Australians Holmgren and Mollison and Bill Mollison and the similarities between Permaculture and Biodynamics are about as similar Islam and Christianity. Both have philosophies and dogma telling adherents how they should conduct their lives but that does not make them identical. |
