Help your body to heal itself with Apple Cider Vinegar:

Cider Vinegar is not a cure. Curing is an internal biological function. Only the body cures itself. Cider Vinegar, however, will help the body function better. It is proving to be one of the greatest aids to health known to nutritional science.
Vinegar is made when fresh, naturally sweet cider is fermented into an alcoholic beverage (hard cider). It is then fermented again. The result is vinegar.

For Body Purification
Along with Potassium Deficiency, toxic poisons are the cause of many troubles in the human body. The toxins remain and lodge in the joints and organs of the body. These toxins are rendered harmless by a substance in Vinegar with the living Mother. Scientists call this protective action Acetolysis.

 

BioDynamics

Bio-Dynamics is a step further on from Organics. It is a way of concentrating on the life-force that produces all living things and ensuring we are doing everything to enhance the life giving properties and not using management techniques that will stop this process. This philosophy fits in well with the fermentation process used in creating vinegar. But also means that our growing techniques must compliment the environment. Whilst it is organically acceptable to mow the orchards, to add another layer of life forces into the chain, we use stock to control the grass. This both shortens the grass, manures the trees and keeps the black spot and codlin moth to a minimum, without the use of chemicals. I am also committed to the principals of Permaculture, which state that when you do something, you achieve a number of benefits (not just one). So using the example of stock to control the grass, we achieve a number of advantages in our overall management of the orchard, which are all adding to the overall life force.

To help reduce my carbon footprint, I run all of my vehicles on bio-fuel, produced from recycled cooking oils. (I smell a bit like a pickle in a fish and chip shop, sometimes).
