The Biodynamics Centenary Tour

Sydney visit: 11th and 12th May

A series of lectures, discussions and artistic presentations to celebrate the 100 years contribution of biodynamics to science, the life of the soil and cultural life.

The Sydney Centenary Conference has an exciting lineup of international, interstate and local speakers.

Hear how climate change can be mitigated by using (not just storing) atmospheric carbon in the soil to combat greenhouse gases.

Meet experts and people from related fields – nutrition, soil fertility, and social initiatives.

Create networks and opportunities to work together for a common goal.

Find out about practices which have been in use globally for 100 years and have proved their efficacy many times over.

Enjoy cultural offerings – music, drama, eurythmy and art

You can also visit the lunchtime Sale Table and Rudolf Steiner Book Centre, which will be open at all the breaks.

About the Centenary of Biodynamics
2024 celebrates a centenary of the biodynamic movement.  It has been 100 years since Rudolf Steiner presented the Agriculture Lectures in Europe, which were the start of what became known as Organic and Biodynamic Agriculture. To acknowledge the centenary, Ueli Hurter from Switzerland, the head of biodynamics globally, is undertaking a speaking tour of Australia in May. Ueli Hurter visits biodynamic farms and can report on their health and success.
