Northey St City Farm has organic markets every Sunday.
All the stall holders are certified organic, but some of them have also suggest they are bio-dynamic or that their produce is grown to classical music. I bought some bio-dynamic eggs from one stall holder and it made me think about all the different terms that surround the notion of eating more sustainably. Or, I guess at least being more conscious about where the food we eat comes from and how it is grown and manufactured.
So what does it mean to be certified organic? What is bio-dynamic and why would food grown that way be better for us? How would bio-dynamic practices promote a better life for the chickens that lay the eggs?
We've started to unpack some of these terms on the Words section of our blog. If you are as confused as we were, check it out as a starting point.
