Introduction to the holistic, Permaculture based approach to Aquaponics.

Learn how we can “close the loops” and design our Aquaponics systems to be even more sustainable, integrated, efficient and self-sufficient!

Wether you are a beginner, a backyard hobbyist, a homesteader or a skilled professional wanting to start a career in Aquaponics... this webinar has something to offer.

Aquaponics

Aquaponics is one of the most sustainable and productive farming systems in the world. It combines Aquaculture and Hydroponics to create more self-sufficient, closed-loop, systems that use only a fraction of the water, labor, energy, etc. that other methods use.

Permaculture

Permaculture is the conscious design and maintenance of agriculturally and culturally productive systems which have the diversity, stability, and resilience of natural ecosystems.

Aquaponics + Permaculture

When the whole systems design science of Permaculture is combined with the practice of Aquaponics a whole new science is created.

Welcome to “Closed-Loop Aquaponics” - Aquaponics with Applied Permaculture Design.
