Kim Benjamin, executive director of the Bradford City Water Authority, tells us about how Bradford has become a model for other cities in transforming barren ground into fields of winter wheat, oats, fescue and rye grasses.
The water authority made a formal presentation at the Pennsylvania Municipal Authorities Association conference in Hershey in regard to the ongoing success of its land reclamation projects on the Bradford watershed.
In the city’s project, residual waste from the water treatment process is used as a soil base.
“The result is that a vibrant turf has evolved at selected sites,” Kim tells us.
“Unimpeded by this year’s dry, arid summer and with no commercial fertilizers, Rotheraine’s use of biodynamic liquid compost preparations have produced healthy grasses and grains that shall benefit a variety of wildlife which inhabits the watershed," he adds.
Since 1996, the authority has been operating under a Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection permit to reclaim barren land and at the same time dispose of water treatment residual waste.
“This environmentally friendly method has proven not just beneficial to wildlife and the watershed, but to Bradford water customers’ wallets as well,” Kim reports.
Conventional disposal runs as high as $70 per cubic yard to dewater, process and haul residuals to a landfill, and tipping fees. By comparison, the land application costs run just under $29 per cubic yard. Thus, this year’s 5,000 cubic yard project has saved $215,000 compared to conventional disposal.
Since Bradford City Water Authority started using this environmentally friendly disposal technique back in 1996, many water systems statewide have worked with Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to be permitted for land reclamation.

Master Gardener Shares Philosophy
Strange as this concept seems to the 20th century,
biodynamic science is a new form of the primeval wisdom given to humanity
by spiritual beings that contemporary humanity calls angels and ancient
civilizations called gods. In ancient times, the angels told humans how
to use spiritual forces to create plants and animals on earth.1
The biodynamic agricultural science is our path back to this creative
wisdom. This wisdom survived the destruction of Atlantis in primeval
Ireland. The destruction of Atlantis is the
Great Flood in the Bible.
Ancient humanity had an instinctive knowledge of heavenly energy and how
to use it. With it our ancestors were able to achieve some of the technological
wonders that still baffle contemporary humanity. The pyramids in Egypt
and South America, New Grange in Ireland, and the megalithic structures
throughout the ancient world were built in union with heavenly activity.
They are proof of an intelligence that is beyond the grasp of twentieth
century science.

All life is a result of heavenly, celestial activity.
This concept, once known, had been forgotten in our times until Dr. Rudolf
Steiner, together with a group of farmers, formulated it anew. 2
Biodynamic science uses this formative heavenly
energy by applying yarrow, chamomile, nettle, oak bark, dandelion and
valerian to a compost pile, and spraying horn manure on the soil and horn
silica on the plants.3
The most important aspect of biodynamic agricultural science is that the
formative forces that create the mineral, plant and animal kingdoms have
their origins in the angelic hierarchies.4

It is the angels of the Bible that are behind
nature, indeed are nature. The spiritual beings that the ancients called
`gods' are the same beings we call `angels.' Once humans and angels
worked together under special circumstances in the creation of the
nature kingdoms of the earth. Ireland was a special place on the earth
for this communication between angels and humans. This is because the
Irish Mysteries were a continuation of the Atlantean Christ Mysteries
and survived the final destruction of Atlantis. The Irish-Atlantean
Christ Mysteries were also called the Sun
Mysteries.
Biodynamic agriculture is the continuation , the metamorphosed Hibernian
[Irish} Mysteries in the 20th Century. From the Hibernian perspective,
human thought is a microcosm of earthly weather. Thought processes impregnate
the brain with pictures from the spirit, much like nature's seasonal changes
give us different pictures at different times of the year. Everything
on Earth is a thought form--even a car or TV are substances sculpted and
designed by human thought.
The brain is a mass of earthly substance for the reception of cosmic forces--thoughts
from our soul and spirit and thoughts from macrocosmic Spirit-Beings-Angels
and their offspring.5.
The brain in many ways is a compost pile. The compost pile is composed
of earthly substances and is transformed by spirit-forces that manifest
as weather and microorganisms. The brain is transformed by our thoughts.
It is a recorder of thoughts (internal weather) for our individual spiritual
forces.
Dr. Rudolf Steiner, the noted scientist that gave the world biodynamic
science in a series of lectures in 1924, likened the human brain to a
compost pile. On June 16, 1924, Steiner stated:
"What is this brainy mass? It is simply an intestinal mass, carried
to the very end. The premature brain deposit passes out through the intestines.
As to its processes, the content of the intestines is decidedly akin to
the brain content. To speak grotesquely, I would say: That which spreads
out through the brain is a highly advanced heap of manure! Grotesque as
it may be, objectively speaking, this is the truth. It is none other than
the dung, which is transmuted--through this particular organic process--into
the noble matter of the brain, there to become the basis for Ego-development.
All material substances, be they composed of solids, liquids, gases or
heat "energies" are thought turned into form by Beings above
and below the human race. Ancient humanity had an instinctive knowledge
of life-giving "energies" that emanated from these angelic hierarchies.
The most important aspect to understanding ancient cultures (particularly
their agricultural science and architectural art) is that they knew that
the "energies" that formed the earth, that created the mineral,
plant and animal kingdom are these angelic beings.
In Biodynamic Agriculture, we give these spirit beings the tools to enhance
the soil of the earth when we use horn manure--biodynamically prepared.
Specifically, horn manure (Biodynamic Prep 500) is made by packing a cow
horn with cow manure and burying it over the course of a winter. Just
as the brain is impregnated with ideas from the soul-spirit, so the manure
in the cow horn is transformed, transmuted through the same principle.
In horn manure the manure is transformed as cosmic and Earthly spiritual
forces enter the horn. Thus we create a thought organ in horn manure
to capture the secrets of the earth in winter to give to the soil in
the spring.
The manure in the cow horn functions as a brain and the horn as a cranium.
The horn is buried in the winter when the forces of the earth are the
strongest, to digest spirit forces that impregnate the manure (brain)
vis-a-vis the cow horns inward radiating effect. We are using form and
substance to capture the cosmic spirit forces when we use the cow horns.
These life-enhancing spirit forces are transferred to earth by diluting
the horn manure in water and rhythmically stirring it before we spray
it on the soil in the spring. This transfers the life forces of the manure
to the water and then to the soil. By this action we give the future
to the past--life to what is dead--by using horn manure (or the Biodynamic
Compost Starter or BD Field Spray). The transformed substance from the
grave of the horn resurrects life through the human being.
At the time of the Hibernian Mysteries the etheric energy (life energy)
on the earth was of a much purer, living state, declining after the demise
of the Mysteries. It would take a spiritually conscious humanity to resurrect
the aging earth. In biodynamics, Rudolf Steiner and the farmers he taught
brought back the relationship between earth and the cosmos, between humans
and angels. Science is not science unless knowledge of how the angels
create life is relearned. All earthly life is but a manifestation of these
spiritual creatures.
Biodynamic science marks the end of the common misconception of Darwinian
theory that humans are evolved earthly monkeys, and shows that humanity
is a divine spiritual hierarchy, one step below the angels.

3 Biodynamic preparations consist
of yarrow, chamomile, stinging nettle, oak bark, dandelion and valerian
flower, horn manure and horn silica--each specially prepared by
utilizing the energy of the stars, planets and earth. All eight preparations
are constituted and administered to the land in accordance with homeopathic
guidelines. TOP
4 The Bible names nine hierarchies
of angels above the human race:Angels, Archangels, Archai, Exusiai, Dynamis,
Kyriotetes, Thrones, Cherubim, and Seraphim. Thus we see why the early
Church considered the earth the center of the solar system, feeling that
after the Resurrection the King of the Angelic Hierarchies was on earth.
