SLATER FARMS
Slater Farms (Brett & Karen Slater) is the home of “Rainfed Rice” and is grown and milled on their farm in Northern Rivers, NSW.
Brett Slater, a local Bio-dynamic certified farmer with a passion for innovative sustainable farming moved to organic farming practices in 1998 and converted to Bio-dynamic growing in 2004.
Brett grew his first crop of dryland rice in 2009.
He then purchased and set up his own mill on the farm in 2010 to produce an all-down-the-line bio-dynamic grain.
WHY BIO DYNAMIC?
Bio-dynamics is an advanced organic method in which no artificial fertilizers or chemical sprays are used. Bio-dynamic gardeners and farmers use a range of methods including biological activator preparations to powerfully enliven soils and plants.
The plant is seen in its overall context not just isolated in a piece of soil – the influences on the plant of the soil, the water in the soil and atmosphere, light and warmth, and the cosmos (sun, moon, planets and stars) are all considered. These factors are consciously balanced, allowing the plant to grow to its full potential in health and vitality, resulting in the most beautiful, tasty, health building food.
The soil is the most important basis of agriculture. Soils are gradually developed into a humus-rich, friable, well structured, well-drained state.
Rudolf Steiner, in 1924, described a method of making a series of biological activator preparations that would powerfully influence soil development in all these aspects, and
allow plants to grow with optimum health, feeding naturally from the soil humus, not artificially from the soil water.
