Please tell us something else about yourself.: I just started getting interested in aquaponics recently, as in the past month. Already me and my boyfriend are designing a system, and I have become fascinated with this method of gardening.

So I decided to take it out of their hands! :D And rather than spending my money on expensive organic produce, why not grow it in my home?
On a side note I like reading, and drawing.

Love Interior Gardens! Do you work there?

Thanks for joining the Aquaponic Gardening community! I hope you find it a fun place to explore aquaponics. There is a real blend of experienced and new aquapons in this community, so please don’t hesitate to get in there and start asking questions. Everyone is quite happy to help out new members – no question is too basic.

A great place to start is to read the “How to Use This Site” link on the upper right corner, “Start Here” section of the Main page. You might also find the “Aquaponic Gardening Rules of Thumb” guidelines helpful.

Please participate!

If you can afford it I would also appreciate a donation through the “Donate button” on the right side of the home page. This helps me with monthly site fees, but is NOT a requirement of membership. If you can contribute… great! If not…no worries.

Thanks again for joining us, and I look forward to getting to know you.

Sylvia
