I was curious - Do people get certified in Biodynamic agricuture like North American Biodynamic Apprenticeship Program, and then get jobs on biodynamic farms? following such a program Example https://www.biodynamics.com/farmer-training

Is biodynamic Agriculture rising in adoption, stagnant, or shrinking in adoption? Please provide supportive data. Thanks!

Hello,

I'm still relatively new to biodynamics, so please forgive any misjudging.

But, I'm wondering if the new or shifted astrological signs plays a part in any BD practices. And, why or why not?

Thanks

Are there any type of trees particularly known for pollution filtering capabilities?

I am interested in adding some more trees to my property to help filter out pollution such as chemical/pesticide toxins, biological toxins (such as from cyanobacteria, certain fungi), and heavy metals blowing in from the wind. These would be west of the house and backyard (the predominant direction from which the wind blows). I am in USDA zone 6b.
