Bio-Dynamics Centennial Celebration

in South Australia May 2024

The Biodynamics Centenary Tour

Adelaide Hills visit

Adelaide Hills Bio-Dynamic Group in collaboration with Ngeringa Farm and Vineyards are running a series of events to celebrate the 100 years since Rudolf Steiner gave his agriculture lectures, which was the birth of bio-dynamic agriculture.

2024 celebrates a centenary of the biodynamic movement.  It has been 100 years since Rudolf Steiner presented the Agriculture Lectures in Europe, which were the start of what became known as Organic and Biodynamic Agriculture. To acknowledge the centenary, Ueli Hurter from Switzerland, the head of biodynamics globally, is undertaking a speaking tour of Australia in May. Ueli Hurter visits biodynamic farms and can report on their health and success.

In the course of the two events planned, in the Hills, we aim to celebrate 100 years of Bio-Dynamics (BD) in the world, to bring those interested in or working in BD in South Australia together and to consider how BD can help the world face the challenges of time and our future.
