Welcome to Spring<br />

We love Spring! More sunshine, growth, the promise of warmer weather and Summer<br />

to come. A time of regeneration. Here at <strong>Biodynamic</strong> <strong>Agriculture</strong> <strong>Australia</strong> Ltd<br />

we are growing too. Times have been tough for us all this year; however the Board<br />

has reacted to ensure the continued success of your Company with new developments,<br />

some of which you’ll start to see in this edition of <strong>News</strong> <strong>Leaf</strong>.<br />

The beautiful sunflower on the front cover is a symbol we will become more associated<br />

with. When our revamped website is launched within the next month, you’ll<br />

see more of it and it shines a new light on <strong>Biodynamic</strong>s in <strong>Australia</strong>.<br />

This edition we are very excited to be starting our collaboration with dirtgirlworld.<br />

Those of you with children would be familiar with the ABC TV program, and we<br />

hope to bring you a few pages each month that offer children a way into the world<br />

of gardens and <strong>Biodynamic</strong>s. Don’t miss the competition to win one of three dirtworldgirl<br />

CDs! Also on children there’s an article and photographs from some work<br />

Sydney <strong>Biodynamic</strong>s Inc has been doing with a Sydney council in schools. Very exciting<br />

for the future of <strong>Biodynamic</strong>s.<br />

Feature articles this month include more from Richard Thornton-Smith, this time on<br />

nutrition, an excellent article from Hugh Lovel on true excellence in growing food<br />

and Shane Joyce takes us through some of the conclusions from a workshop on <strong>Biodynamic</strong>s<br />

and cattle.<br />

This <strong>News</strong> <strong>Leaf</strong> has been a true collaboration with staff, directors and supporters<br />

working together to bring you something we feel is fresh and exciting, as Cheryl<br />

Kemp has resigned to work on her own business. Special thanks go to Alan Johnstone<br />

and Leonie Milne who have added to their workload to pull this through and<br />

to Robin Ellis, our designer and typesetter who is, as always, invaluable. We thank<br />

Cheryl Kemp for the time she spent guiding <strong>News</strong> <strong>Leaf</strong> and we wish her well in her<br />

own business.<br />

We hope you enjoy some of the new features and welcome your feedback and suggestions<br />

– send them to bdnewsleaf@biodynamics.net.au. Oh and don’t miss the<br />

dirtgirlworld competition!<br />

Enjoy Spring,<br />

Warmest wishes<br />

The BAA Team.<br />
