The winter has been busy here in In harmony with the Solstice Ajax’s and I headed out to burn the woody biomass from last season making it ready to be fed to the new plants come spring, one of the best ways to master the regenerative cycle is to create your own fertility by turning waste into fertility magic. The ‘OG’ master got busy moving the manure in place. Young master delivered load after load of finished compost from the yard that we spread across the field and around the orchard trees. In essence a worm feast winter blanket to enhance the living soil biology with the stars. With the Birds and their songs returning to the homestead farm early this year we didn’t have to wait for Punxsutawney Phil on Ground Hog Day to know what’s up. Time to finish ordering our seeds and schedule our fruit tree pruning in harmony with the Full Moon of February 12th. The Moon will be in the elemental house of Fire Fruit starting February 10th making it the perfect time to get the work done. Pruning 72-hours prior to the Full Moon allows the tree to heal and cap the cuts quickly as the flow has been drawn up into the levity afforded to us by her Grace the Moon. For years people have been asking me to teach or give lessons, after 16 years of committed practice perhaps it is time to do just that. My Son has promised to film the efforts this year pruning and put together some you tube videos to show others the way. If you are more of a hands on learner than we invite you to reach out to us and learn the ways of "the wise old Master" come Monday 2.10.25.

As I reflect back on the completion of our 15th year of practice, I would be remiss if I didn't profess the importance of this hidden message not found in the original Agriculture Lecture given by R. Steiner in 1924,
(APPENDIX B. Part 6A).

When you find yourself here, selfless and in tune you find harmony and peace.

Yesterday marked the 15th year that we have been making in
For me and Master Joe Murray it marked our 13th year of practicing together. Thanks to from the we were able to receive ‘fresh’ this years . Master Joe swirled the Valarian for the appointed time then drilled the holes into the manure pile for insertion. Preps #502 - #507 were inserted and then splashed/topped off with about half off the swirled Valarian. We believe that these enhancements allow our composts to become a literal source of creation, which then can be influenced by the overhead forces to the degree that the practitioner understands. In common terms, doing so allows anyone with these understandings to create miraculous forms of life, regardless of what Agriculture Zone or Time Zone they live in.
or as we say in That’s What’s Up ^

Looking back over the last 15 years of Urban Inner City farming I wished I would have gotten to the Bio-intensive Raised Bed aspect, sooner than later. It is the most cost-effective way to create 3-5 Crops from the same real estate every growing season, while saving time, money and the back aches that can be associated with weeding/maintenance/harvesting. In harmony with the New Moons arrival in on Friday Nov 1st at 8:35 Am ESFT it was time again to harvest the third crop of carrots form the same raised beds. Once the crops have assimilated the carbon and elements to construct their finished form, we simply top the bed off with Fresh-Living-Warm and then its oft to the races/repeat, (the carrots shown were never watered and came to fruition during a late summer fall drought). This challenges and can replace the USDA NOP- Organic farming standards, instead of “Crop Rotation” its “Compost is Creation”. Taking fresh carrots and putting them into the juicer is the straight-line approach to health and vitality. Ingesting food as medicine, reduced in harmony with the universal law of minimal surface design, creating greater edge in liquid form. Its also the time to accept and inoculate the manure that we annually use to cover the raised beds, orchards and farming plots, allowing the resident worms to feast all winter before we ask the land to begin again.

The Full Moon of October arrived in last Thursday, October 17th @ 7:26 AM ESFT. Contrary to the top-downers, this is not the “hunters moon” but rather a Harvest Moon for us here in Detroit. The late tomatoes and peppers were picked washed and laid out to dry, (its what Andreas Salsa looks like before it goes into the jars). The Passion fruit are coming in nicely and smell wonderful. But the star of the show is the that swells in vortices spirals, reaching up and out into the Fall-Lit-Sky. In spite of the numerous challenges practicing in an urban environment, (Heat Island, Light Pollution, Rats just to name of few), the 8 test subjects from this year’s study continue to amaze everyone who has seen them in person. 4 farmers stand in front of a plant that the Top-Down experts, who write books all said this strain would only get 5-6’ tall? When you have freed the elemental kingdom and encourage them to be present and “help build up and form plants”, you can throw the books, and the “experts” for that matter, out the window. The Flower forms are brilliantly colored and smell amazing. The elemental assimilation that has taken place, becomes epoxy-like sticking to everything, . The curing process takes longer than imagined as resin and oil laden vessels take longer the cure than water saturated hydroponic B.S. people still choose to put into their bodies. The bottom line is purity and divine-intelligence. What if “getting hi” wasn’t about escaping one’s reality or bad situation and instead was simply elevating one's spirit, perspective, mind and view? How could that influence society?

As I sit back and watch the Stream of the and the from all over the world come into my computer screen via social media I cannot help but imagine what all of “That” means to the common folk or the kids who will inherit our work once we are gone? I mean online conferences, pay to play can only go so far. How does a child, student, neophyte, find inspiration in redlined images on “graph’s” or “star charts”, “astrology” or what “Mercury through the trine for the next 2-days” means? For those of you who are stuck in the stars/the forces that can influence creation let us all be reminded that “creation lies directly beneath our feet”. Its planetary and the realm of the Divine Feminine/Holy Spirit/Mother Nature. Nobody is out there actually showing you the practice, instead they are asking you for your money to attend their course or buy their version of a biodynamic calendar without ever showing a thing or better yet sharing the ASTOUNDING results. How else are we to inspire others to choose this farming practice or better yet to think like water and find the way here on earth?

With all of this in mind, the Full Moon of September and the Fall Equinox both arrived here last week in Tuesday Sept. 17th @ 10:34 PM ESFT, (Eastern Standard Farm Time) and Saturday Sept 22 @ 8:43 AM ESFT, the Detroit Based farming Crew was there in the field to “harness the forces available to all of us”. Young Master Nick Doggett mixed the Biodynamic Preparations for the last time and applied them to the Flowers and Fields. Master Joe Murry went by to say Hi to our Horse friends stationed at the Mounted Police, (1500 Meters away) to collect some super fresh and still steamy-green-road-apples for our Cow horn insertions, (Contrary to the “experts’ out there, Steiner was right about horse manure, its all we have ever used for the last 15 years and the results are magnificent). Joe and Young worthy apprentice Bernard Dickerson can be seen inserting the freshness into the Vortice Antenna’s that then are capped with Clay and inserted into the ground for the Cosmic period, (influenced by distant starlight over the darker period, fall to spring, in the northern hemisphere),

Master Andrea Meyers and Young Master Michelle Burda met with our Regenerative Organic Inspector
from who flew all the way across America from Oregon to come out and inspect our farming efforts which received “Gold Status” the highest level of regenerative organic certification in the world. In essence we are a test farm that is always “testing to prove these things out” R. Steiner 1924 while we expand our knowledge base and improve the intended results. This year we were blessed with 8 different seed strains from fellow Sun and Earth farmers, beginning with the Full Moon of February, March and April, we sent them off to the races to photo journal each moon and record the results. For those of you whom are unaware, or are inclined to Judge and Hate on things that you do not understand, Cannabis is de-criminalized in Detroit. We have licenses to legally grow our 26 test subjects from the State of Michigan. Some come in early like our pink type ‘Honey Buns’, the silvery frost of ‘7A x Natty Bumppo, (from ) and a local favorite , all are remarkable. “You know I have seen big plants in Southern Oregon before, but I could never imagine anything like this in Michigan, let alone in Detroit”, Kris E. Fellow cannabis grower and Sun and Earth Inspector.

Growing requires work to be done in tune with the season. It’s not on automatic, in containers nor part of any water-soluble system. It’s in the where the magic really happens. As we slide into the first week of September its safe to say that any new that are forming, will not come to Fruition by the first frost here in . This is the time to clean off all remaining suckers and fan leaves and lift the heavily laden vines up into the golden sun light. Cleaning the cores removes the habitat for white flies and fungus and allow a clear site line for our friends the straight on into the waiting yellow flowers. With the temperatures cooling at night the fruit enjoy an elevated position to ‘sugar-up^’ slowly making for the best Sauce. And those who like’a the sauce, know that late summer Roma’ s are da best. It’s the last time we feed them before saying thank you and good night.

“The Moon has Dominion over Water on Earth”, Zohar 1046 AD (for the experts out there lets level ^). In Harmony with Her Grace the Full Moon arrival here in Detroit on Aug. 19th @ 2:25 PM ESFT the team took to the fields once more to, “harness the forces available to everyone” R. Steiner 1924 (include Gen 3 Oliver who has become a fruit eating monster!).

Seasonal Biodynamic Preparations ( #500, #501, #508) where spun for an hour and applied. The spent biomass tissue and weeds were hand harvested as shipped towards/onto the compost heap. For us average folk out here growing vegetables at home for the kids and family, I think it is important to immediately cover your beds of creation with fresh compost or Decomposed woodchips or bark to keep feeding the living life of the soil, (worms included!), while protecting the vitality from atmospheric or storm surface run off.

We continue with our research and testing on how to create greater elemental assimilation/nutritive density, yield-volumetrics, weight? In other words imagine a way to trans-configure with fire, your intended result into a minimal surface design, creating “greater edge” to be conjoined-instantaneously-assimilated, shipped straight up to the new forms/vessel, on the exact day when the total sunlight in Detroit dips to less than 14 hrs……., what then?
