I was taken aback for a moment when reading Rudolf Steiner’s verse for this week (Week 20). But then I realized that he was presenting an image as if in a photo negative. Now I can see that he was trying to convey how a person’s life would be if separated from others, if severed from the Spirit world. Each one of us would die if left alone.

The regular version of Lundberg short-grain brown rice has 0 grams of sugars and 4 percent iron per serving. The biodynamic version has 1 gram of sugars and 2 percent iron per serving.

These were two of the takeaways from Napa Valley's 10th annual organic grapegrowing conference last week.
