Courses that can change the course of your life.
September 2010

 

Summer has released it's hot grip on us and autumn has decended.  The lawn and garden has changed, from browns to greens, complimenting the red flame of leaves in the oak trees.   Truley a magical change of season and time to have an office that looks out onto such a beautiful garden! (thank you Glynis)

I hope many of you have been able to enjoy your Autumn festivals and harvests in good health, spirit and friendship! 
With this e-newsletter, we thought it would be nice to share with you  some of the treasures involved with biodynamic agriculture and how it can help support and nurture our planet..obviously these treasures include a few of our student profiles from the Certificate in Applied Organics & Biodynamics!  Thank you Burton and Jenny for sharing and Althea for the interviews.
Enjoy! Korina :)
