    I got the book to get her recipe for making her distinctive type of compost. She explains / gives the recipe in just a couple of pages, yet she continues to give additional information about her experience of making compost such that all the other information was very helpful and interesting. A great little (big) book.

    This book outlines the best approach to making compost and is described in simple terms? There is good simple explanations on how to use the plants that make up biodynamic preparations

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Review of Common Sense Compost Making.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 12, 2015
    A book of small size but great weight, it sucessfully holds all anyone needs to know about Organic farming or gardening.
    The book is now out of print. It's copyright was donated to the English Soil association and their carelessness in allowing such a gem to disapere says a great deal about where their present ethos lies.
    It demystifies the Steiner approach to soil preparations, and combines competance in making and a fresh approach to observations on how things work in the soil. Not many books cut through to the quick of ideas, this is one of them.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 8, 2013
    Along with the One Straw Revolution by Manusoba Fukuoka.

    I have drunk the mix (a pinch of 7 herbs in water, shaken and left 24 hours) instead of squash in the summer - tho not more than 3 weeks consecutively (perhaps unneccessary as a precaution for valerian in such small quantities?), and I found that I could feel my hands prickling with live eggs about to hatch, but not those that were unfertilised. This is not my usual level of sensitivity, it is a life giving mix even to people evidently. And works wonderfully in the compost heap too.

    There are some good ideas and helpful tips in here but all undermined and undone by a heap of disproven homeopathic dogma.
