Biodynamic agriculture views each farm as a living organism, with interconnected systems that support health, resilience, and productivity. Central to this approach is a self contained fertility cycle, where animals provide manure for the land and the land, in turn, provides feed for the animals, fostering long term sustainability.

This session explores how working within these natural limits can lead to a deeper appreciation of abundance, revealing the Earth’s capacity to nourish when cared for holistically. Each farm is understood as unique, shaped by the farmer’s relationship with place and expressed through a rich tapestry of forests, meadows, wetlands, cultivated fields, flowering trees, and wild and domestic plants and animals. Together, these elements link farmers and their customers more intimately to the land and the food it produces.

Cory began apprenticing on Biodynamic farms in 1992 and co-founded the Saugeen River CSA in 97. It is a small diversified farm with livestock and wildlands, providing vegetables, herbs, flowers, and eggs to the local community around Durham in Grey County. Since 2005, Cory has been teaching courses on Biodynamic Agriculture through the winter months.
