Barefoot Biodynamics: How Cows, Compost, and Community Help Us Understand Rudolf Steiner’s Agriculture Course

This book covers an introduction to learning and practicing biodynamic principles in the garden, for growers of all experience levels. The author  Jeff Poppen combines this knowledge with anecdotes of applying these principles in rural Tennessee. He touches on things like improving a farm’s fertility using cover crops, making compost, understanding the chemical needs and makeup of a garden and the land, as well as avoiding chemicals and enhancing the availability of critical minerals. Through his humor and his own experiences, Poppen shares how to care for the land and promote longstanding growth success.
