Please tell us something else about yourself.
I have 2.3 acres on which I planted rare tropical fruit trees since I moved in 7 yrs ago. I've always been interested in growing veggies but the weeds always took over. 2 yrs ago, I started thinking about raising tilapia but abandoned the idea because of red tape in permits and inability to find a fish source. While searching the net I came upon some info about using 275 gal totes as my container and miraculously I found a local source ( driving distance of 20 minutes) selling tilapia fingerlings last week. If that doesn't get anyone excited I don't know what else would. I had even called someone in Miami & homestead in the past but still stumbled into road blocks. And then, I found your site!
