Glenn's got some amazing AP setups, every time i go there hes got something new to learn about.
Last time i saw his new bucketponics system and the new bucketsiphon.  Before that, a new DWC raft system, the time before that he added 13 more growbeds, a portable system, swirl filter in the tilapia tanks, and the first time was to attend his class.  Theres always something new!
This is a great chance to visit an aquaponic farm.   You can also learn about vermicomposting, see his flocks of chickens, ducks, goats, and horses.
