Biodynamic Spray preparations are applied as potentized liquid sprays to bring healing, vitality, and sensitivity to the farm and garden. Horn manure (#500) enhances the life of the soil and the relationship between soil and plants, and is made from cow manure buried inside a cow horn during the winter months. Horn silica (#501) increases plant immunity, strengthens photosynthesis, enhances ripening, and is prepared from ground quartz crystals buried in a cow horn over the summer months. Horsetail tea (#508) helps prevent fungal diseases and balances the watery element in plants and soil. Together, the biodynamic spray and compost preparations bring plants into a dynamic relationship with soil, water, air, warmth, and cosmos to help them develop in a healthy and balanced way, access the full spectrum of nutrients they need, and become more resilient to pests, diseases, and extreme climate conditions.

Harald Hoven is a semi-retired Biodynamic farmer living in Sacramento, California. After a 4-year BD Horticulture training in his native Germany, he moved to California, where for 30 years he farmed and taught Biodynamics at Rudolf Steiner College in Fair Oaks, Ca. There he developed Raphael Garden, a highly diversified small farm, and trained close to 100 apprentices in Biodynamic farming, using the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model to market its products. Sine 2017 he has been mentoring and consulting famers, and has been teaching courses in Biodynamics, primarily at home and in Southeast Asia.
