Cheers!
Tom, thanks for the invite. I am really interested in Aquaponics. Thanks for setting up the Texas group. I hope to get some real experience soon, and be able to be an active part of the community.
Aww, thanks! I am certain you will live up to any expectations and more! The branch and region structure Sylvia and team has laid out is awesome and the interest and buzz at the branch/individual level is incredible. I am so excited that this is all coming together. Thanks for jumping in and taking an active role.
Hi Tom! Thanks for the request. Sylvia said she talked to you today and had great things to say! I look forward to getting to know you!
Welcome Tom,
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 Home page. You might also find the “Aquaponic Gardening Rules of Thumb” guidelines helpful.
Please participate and check in with us every day! We are constantly posting news about aquaponics and the good food movement.
Thanks again for joining us, and I look forward to getting to know you.
Sylvia
