We have 6,700 square feet of aquaponics growing area on our farm in Honokaa, and always hold a free 2-hour farm tour on Saturdays. If you want to see our farm, just show up Saturday the 21st between the 40 and 41 mile markers on the highway from Hilo to Honokaa at 10:00 in the morning. There's a pink telephone pole at the turnoff that you can't miss. At 12:00 the same day we're holding a free class in organic certification for your aquaponic farm, and breeding tilapia, that all are welcome to come to.

Mahalo nui Chris. You are a most generous person! I do hope that eventually youʻll be able to attend the Aquaponics Exploration Bus Tour that will take place in Hilo area. Hopefully, soon after weʻll be able to have one also in Kona region and weʻll be able to give you all a visit. A hui hou.

I have two aquaponic systems in my back yard in Kona. Between the two I have 800 square feet of growing area. I am located above the Kona airport. I would like to invite Charles Petterson and anybody else to come for a tour. Send me an email with your phone number and I'll call you to make arrangements.

Yes, there is and we'll try to find out the information and send it to you as soon as we can.
