The gardener takes note of, and works with, the seasons for ...

• sowing 
• planting - including annual and herbaceous plants, shrubs and trees bought from a nursery or plant centre as well as vegetables 
• cultivating 
• harvest – i.e. when flowers bloom, cut flowers, picking fruit and vegetables.
  

The Biodynamic Calendar works with more than just the moon ...

• The Moon travels around the Earth once every 28-29 days. 
• In going round the Earth she passes in front of the constellations. 
• As she does so, she collects the energy from the stars in that constellation and focuses it onto the Earth. 
• So … the Moon acts as a lens for collecting and focusing the energy of each constellation in turn onto the Earth. 
• The moon passing in front of each of the constellations giving the days when best to work with each element in the garden.
