Zenbunni and Biodynamics
Zen and Bunni Nishimura use only ingredients grown on biodynamic farms for their artisanal chocolates. Using ancient methods, these farmers use nine preparations made from fermented manure, herbs (yarrow, chamomile, stinging nettle, oak bark, dandelion, valerian and horsetail) and the mineral silica instead of GMOs, synthetic chemicals, fertilizers or pesticides. In thoughtful cooperation with the influences of the sun, moon and planets on the earth, these biodynamic preparations are used as field sprays and in the making of compost to stimulate specific processes within the farm in order to stimulate and sustain the farm’s inherent fertility, restore on-farm biodiversity, and heal land previously thought to be non arable.
