We were humbled that Susan Friend and Tim Mann of Friendly Aquaponics accepted our humble request to visit our home in Central Florida and Sahib’s Aquaponics Research Farm and share some quality time with each other. What a wonderful time we all had with each others company and sharing the knowledge of how Aquaponics can be the key to growing food in a sustainable way of life. They spent some time at Sahib’s Aquaponic Research farm as well as the start of Phase II. Lot’s of thoughts and ideas shared 🙂
On this visit, Susan and Tim also were fortunate to visit the beautiful Hindu Temple in Casselberry which was blessed on the opening day in June 2005 from a Swami from Hawaii
We are one of the featured Farms for the Aquaponic Conference being held in Orlando FL on Sept 16-18. The farm tours are on Friday morning / afternoon. Come then or. I am also there most Saturday mornings and a few people who are interested in Aquaponics or just want some stress relief (great therapy), come by and help out in various projects. They learn this wonderful that way first hand and get excellent stress relief session at no charge…priceless. You are welcome 🙂
We share some with friends & family, give some to the less fortunate and non-profit organizations, sell a few and if there are any spare, the Tilapia & Koi love them as a treat. If you are around, you are welcome to share your honest labor with us…in return we promise you therapy for your body & mind and some plants for your you to enjoy 🙂
About 200 Koi fingerlings (2 to 4 inches) in 800 gallon tank, 100 small Tilapia in a 250 gal tank and 100 small Catfish in another 250 gal tank 🙂
Will remove to other tanks when they get bigger
My first video share…Yes I will slow down the movement when recording so no sudden movements.
There were 4 tours scheduled for Friday Sept. 16th. 2011, one at 9.00am, one at 10.30am, one at 1.00 and last at 2.30pm. We actually ended up giving 7 tours as a number of Aquapon visitors arrived either much earlier than scheduled or after the tour was almost over…either lost their way, late flight arrival or other tour took longer. We tried to accommodate them all.
We were humbled at having numerous Aquapon Gurus and mentors visit our small Aquaponic Research Farm. Thank you -)
