Aquaponics education network
Aquaponics is the cultivation of fish and plants together in a constructed, recirculating ecosystem utilizing natural bacterial cycles to convert fish waste to plant nutrients. This is an environmentally friendly, natural food-growing method that harnesses the best attributes of aquaculture and hydroponics without the need to discard any water or filtrate or add chemical fertilizers. - Aquaponic Gardening Community, November 2010
"Our mission is to create awareness of Aquaponics and its use in sustainable food growth, while educating our students and community through engaging outreach programs."
