DESCRIPTION

Niels Stokholm and his wife Rita have been biodynamic farmers on Thorshøjgaard (north of Copenhagen in Denmark) for over 30 years. They have founded and managed the farm according to the idea that man and earth are fundamentally connected to the universe. They make all the practical decisions in harmony with nature and in respect of the animals. These methods and beliefs in biodynamic farming yield some of the finest products, praised by the consumers and the world’s best restaurant, NOMA in Copenhagen. Niels’ ways of farming in accordance with the planet and the primal instincts of the animals are not too popular with the authorities. They are threatening to withdraw his license to keep cattle, and to close down the farm.
