A Growing Trend In Aquaponics
By Marta Lane on Aug 15, 2012 in Farmers Markets, Lifestyle
“Most of the soil on Kaua‘i is junk,” says Glenn Hontz, program coordinator for advanced education and training in agriculture and business programs at Kaua‘i Community College. “It’s not because of the plantations either. You can blame it on the sun, the rain and the incredible amount of heat that the soil is exposed to all the time.“That soil can be built back up within a few months,” Hontz continues. “But it’s a lot of work. It’s easier to build an aquaponics facility.”

On March 8 of this year when I got an email from Udemy.com asking me to create an online Aquaponic Gardening course for them. At first the idea was honestly completely overwhelming. We were in the midst of getting our arms around large system sales and shipping, I was one month away from teaching for nine days at the Green Acres Aquaponic Farming Course in Florida, and I was leaving for ten days in Japan with my son in the next two weeks. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized that this was actually the perfect way to bring the book to life!
The result is a comprehensive course that I feel incredibly good about! It contains 33 video lessons, most as PowerPoint Mashups, that each average about 10 minutes in length. It also contains twelve of my most educational (or entertaining!) blog posts and a couple of charts for tracking data and maintenance tasks. Most of all, this is the visual life that I wanted to give to my book all along. I hope you give it a try! To learn more, please click here – Aquaponics Course.
