Join us April 16 for a hands-on aquaponics intensive workshop providing valuable information and skills.

• System components and sourcing
• Aquaponics design and location considerations
• Growbed, plant crop, fish tank size, stocking density and feed ratios
• Hands-on construction of an IBC tank system
• Building a bell siphon and assembling other plumbing parts
• Filling the system with media and water
• Fishless and fish cycle startup procedures
• Discussion of fish transportation and stocking the tank
• Seeding, transplanting, rotational planting, plant health and harvesting
• Daily operations and maintenance

The IBC systems built during class will be used for upcoming aquaponics demonstrations for local schools. If you are interested in building your own system during class to take home with you, we can make special arrangements to have additional materials on hand for a designated fee. Please let us know in your reservation request if you are interested in this option.

Additional information: Since the class is held in a greenhouse, dress for both hot and cold temperatures. Please bring a sack lunch and snacks for yourself or to share with the group. There are very few food service options available in the area.
