5.0 out of 5 stars Colouful, clear and helpful , 10 Mar 2008
This is a beautiful book, full of colour photos and illustrations. Maria Thun sounds great - wish she was my grandmother. Everything she says is backed up by her own empirical research - masses of it! Anyone who trashes biodynamics should read this and feel ashamed. Her farm is like a scientific laboratory, and all her advice is backed up by solid research.

Best of all, though, this is a great 'how to' book that takes you through the seasons. Practical and good on the coffee table too!

5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic!!!, 17 April 2009
By Ms. V. R. Park "lady of punk" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is amazing! I have just started growing my own this year and was interested in doing so biodynamically as I worked as a Dr Hauschka esthetician so knew a bit about it and what I did know made a lot of sense! At the end of last year I bought the calander but this book brought everything together for me and I really understand it a lot better. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in gardening especially if they are into organic methods to take it a step further. As I am now disabled I feel by following the biodynamic philosophy growing my own fruit and veg is a lot easier for me as you can only do so much each day.Also I have ordered the preperations needed from the address given at the back of the book.

2.0 out of 5 stars interesting but......., 16 Feb 2009
By Woodthorpe "woodthorpe" (Nottingham, England) - See all my reviews
I have a little knowledge of biodynamic gardening and was looking for a book to increase that kowledge and perhaps give a few pointers as to how to integrate biodynamic growing into my current organic method. The book was interesting but was rather 'bitty' and didn't really take me any further than I am already in knowing and understanding biodynamic growing
