    Alan, I've been pretty involved in Aquaponics for a while now. You asked about the Green Acres class, and it is excellent. I've been to several classes, and even teach my own, and the GA class is the best. I already knew AP, but I was amazed at the level of business and marketing info taught, with realistic expectations all along the way. What stands out about GA as well, was that they were organized, and the whole program flowed smoothly. Other AP training classes I have seen were not rehearsed, not diverse, and the instructors had overlapping info, as if they hadn't even reviewed their presentations amongst each other. Nothing worse than a whole day of 4 different lessons in AP 101. GA was a great value, and not a wasted minute in the whole training.
