Biodynamic farming is increasingly popular among farmers and consumers, but it is still dismissed as pseudoscience by part of the scientific community. Organic farming has many of the values we love about holistic dairy farming, but bio-dynamic takes them a little further. Organic farming aims to produce food of high nutritional quality and flavour while avoiding the use of artificial fertilisers or synthetic chemicals, with some limited use of naturally-occurring pesticides and fertilisers.
Bio-dynamic farming takes these strict standards to the next level. Any inputs from outside the farm are strictly minimised, and Paris Creek Farms’ farmers focus on building a self-sufficient farm to grow feed for their animals and produce fertilisers through natural composting methods. Demeter is the biodynamic standard.
