Aquaponics For Dummies

We have been talking for months about setting up an aquaponics unit to be able to tend a year-round garden, have a steady supply of fish, and with a steady supply of produce, to create an ongoing long-term food storage cycle. 

The barrels have been sitting on the back porch for months but this past week, once I bought new seedlings with the threat of imminent planting needed, the framework around the old re-purposed jacuzzi began.

Following will be our experiment with building and maintaining our first aquaponics unti and how it helps us to create and sustain a year-round food source system.
