De,eer trademark addressed by MR Brockman. It is essential to have a set of standards and defining them had been done to try and avoid conflict with the Soil Association and any element of competition. Christopher Budd was organising a circular tour of the country carrying produce from place to place and hoped this would stimulate local centres to emerge.

Summer conference theme: The Basic concepts of Biodynamics – designed to meet the growing demand for a more imaginative approach to work on the land. It be right after te Soil Associations Conference at Ewell Technical College. We might catch some of the delegates from the latter.
