Aquaponics (IPA: /ˈækwəˈpɒnɪks/) is a self-watering closed-loop system that uses fish effluent and plants in a complementing recirculating enviroment to grow vegetables at an accelerated rate. Here you will find out about different systems you can build, it can be as small as a 10 gallon tank or a large scale commercial setup!

Mari's Gardens
Saturday August 18th; 1pm $15

Anyone interested in a tour of Mari's Gardens? 

Mari's Gardens will host a group tour for us at the discounted rate of $15 per person.  Date is Saturday, August 18th at 1pm.  Tour is 1 hour.  Mari's Gardens is the the biggest aquaponics farm in the state.  Spanning over 11 acres, theres alot to see.

Also, if you need fish, bring a bucket and some cash.  They sell tilapia sunfish at reasonable prices.


I'd like to meetup earlier to have lunch somewhere, open to suggestions.

Please post if you will be attending.  Working out the details but I think the money will be collected at the door.
