Homoeopathic agriculture pioneers
Maye Bruce joined the BD experimental circle in the UK, but couldn't
understand why animal organs were involved. She come to the conviction
that 'the herbs are enough'. She parted company with the BD folk and
developed her own 'Quick Return' method based on homoeopathic dilutions
of the preparation herbs, and honey. She used these only for compost
heaps and wrote
about this work extensively.☝
She remained interested in the living
nature of the organic processes, and would not see them as just chemical
processes. She ends her book with the 'Conviction'; - "The
Divinity that sleeps in the stones, stirs in the plants, wakes in
animals and is conscious alone in man."
Recently
there has been more interest in these 'vegan preparations' in Scandinavia
and we look forward to hearing how their research progresses. This
has particularly taken on some relevance as use of the sheaths - the
animal parts in which the herbs are processed - have become officially
restricted materials following BSE. (cf Steiner on Oxen
eating meat.) Chase
Organics now sells her QR in the UK. There is no equivalent of the
field sprays in the QR range.
