Celebrating 100 Years of Biodynamic Agriculture

TELB 2025 Conference: The Earth as a Living Being

Agriculture Conference
5 – 8 February 2025
Goetheanum Dornach, Switzerland

After 100 years of biodynamics, we held a review in 2023, worked in detail on the Agriculture Course in 2024, and in 2025 we will have the third part of the trilogy: looking towards the future. Under the theme ‹The Earth as a Living Being›, we will explore Rudolf Steiner’s seven life processes to understand how we, as farmers, can contribute to the positive development of the Earth.
What better way to learn BDA where it all began. Biodynamic agriculture was born when Dr Rudolf Steiner gave eight lectures about a new method of agriculture to a large group of farmers in Germany, in 1924. The conference is at the prestigious Goetheanum, the very origin of Biodynamic farming designed by the father of Biodynamic Farming, Rudolf Steiner. This experience is amazingly precious for life.
