      In April We are planning not only a Training in Central Florida But also An International Aquaponics and Earth Day Festival. So we are planning a Festival the Weekend of April 20-21 and then a special Basic Aquaponics Class on Earth Day April 22 leading into an intensive 4 day all about aquaponics training immediately following.

      I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE SAME THING

  • TCLynx

    Plan on it, want to see Murray Hallam. We will be doing the festival and training in Winter Park Florida this year the dates in April I listed above. There will be at least one day out at my Farm in Yalaha, FL.

    And I’m hoping we can also do a training in the fall as well hopefully when the weather has cooled off.

  • Jeanie Prosch

    Is there anything planned for 2014?

    • TCLynx

      I do not currently have anything planned with Practical Aquaponics this year. I’m sure Murray Has some trainings planned at least in OZ if not something going on somewhere around the US.

      However, if you are looking for a 2 day training in Florida sometime, Please Watch Sahib Aquaponics
      For notices about training workshops we do for backyard and small home farm Aquaponics.
