Profile Information:

How did you find us?
looking for others interested in AquaPonics; we're located an hour above San Francisco
Are you an aquaponic gardener already?
proof of concept only, so far
If so, what type of system? (pick all that apply)
We put together a proof concept system and it worked beautifully! We have moved and am getting ready to put together a long term system! Before we have just jumped in with both feet but this time we're more serious and would like to have a productive system to use as an example for our community and schools.
Please tell us something else about yourself.
We are developing a sustainable homestead and want to add fish/shrimp to the mix. Currently we raise heritage pork, miniature/compact grass-fed beef (lowline angus) and old world jersey milking cows (again, very compact) heritage breed as well as chickens, turkeys, guineas, etc.

We have a nice sized organic garden and work a bit with season extensions (cover, hoophouse).

We also raise miniature horses and are working on teaching them to pull (pull a buggy, cart, etc).

    Hi Amy,

    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 by checking out the forums, blogs and groups. If you are interested in a forum or blog topic, but don’t want to join in right away, just check the “follow” box to be notified whenever there is activity on that subject.

    We have just one rule: keep it cordial (no flaming!).

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

    Sylvia
