diy aquaponics fish bowl | THURSDAY RESETTING THE DIARY

diy aquaponics fish bowl


This issue again will be including interesting articles relating to things to do and how to do them around the home, yard and farm. I decided to includ these extras as I believe my blogging friends include quite a number of DIYers who could benefit from many of these articles. So now lets have a look in the notebook...


Eating What You Grow: A Farm Works to Preserve the Culture of Food
Changes are happening on the farm as we speak, since they just purchased five dairy cows. Konesni says they haven’t decided how best to use them, but he’s thinking maybe they’ll start making yogurt. In the future, the possibilities are limitless, and Konesni is open to what may come.
“We might get into growing oysters and other intensive aquaponics,” he says. But for now, “We support shellfishing by keeping the bays clean. We don’t put toxic sprays in shellfish grounds, and we are working to make sure our type of farming increases water cleanliness and quality… There’s a traditional food culture on Shelter Island, including deer hunting, and we support that.”
As the CSA membership grows and the public becomes more and more a part of Sylvester Manor, Konesni’s arms are wide open.
“We’re not an exclusive club. We want to give everyone access to this land, this story, and this place that belong to the entire island and the whole East End,” he said.

                                           ...oooOooo...

Marketing the urban agriculture revolution

Lets talk about indoor farming inside urban warehouses or sleek glass highrises in the canyons of crowded neighborhoods.

It may sound strange but that’s the idea behind vertical farming, a new way to grow food in the middle of and during any season of the year.

Northwestern University alumnus Alan Rose, a 1977 Medill advertising graduate, is at the forefront of this movement. Along with his partners Paul Suder, Paul Hardej and Myles Harston, he’s working to grow produce in the Chicago area using closed-loop technologies

                                           ...oooOooo...

                                           ...oooOooo...

Planting new vision

Producing fresh produce locally for area residents would be both a health and an economic benefit, he said.

"Fresher food has greater nutritional value. It also has the potential for creating thousands of jobs and ancillary services. We can manufacture what we need, like the materials for hoop houses, here," Williams said.

Aquaponics, or raising fish such as tilapia and perch, is another possibility for urban areas, as ventures in Milwaukee have proven, he said.
                                           ...oooOooo...

STEVENSVILLE - Entering Ronald Pifers greenhouse in Stevensville on a frigid winter day is like transporting to a humid oasis on the other side of the planet.
His pyramid-topped project constructed last summer on a 20-by-20-foot basketball court is a work in progress, but the flora and fish inside are already offering evidence of approval.


                                           ...oooOooo...

   
Bell Siphon with Window AND Media Guard

Perfect for new grow beds that dont already have something to block the media from the plumbing!
A Bell siphon is an elegant way to drain your grow bed in a flood and drain aquaponics system without using a timer to turn your pump on and off.
Why use a siphon?
    *  No more timer - You will no longer need nor want a timer to control your pump.  This eliminates:
          o The cost of the timer
          o The risk of timer failure
          o The cost of the electricity needed to run the timer

Aquaponics: A farming revolution?
I recently had the opportunity to hear the owners of Green Acre Organics speak about their aquaponics farm, which is located in Brooksville, FL. They supply produce to Hernando County health food stores, farmers markets and restaurants, and hope to spread the word on this combination of hydroponics and aquaculture and its benefits.
According to their presentation:

Writing the Aquaponic Gardening Book


Sylvia sending in the book
Hitting the send button!
It was the most exhilarating push of a “send“ button I have ever experienced.  On Tuesday, March 1, I sent the manuscript for my new book “Aquaponic Gardening: A Step by Step Guide to Growing Fish and Plants Together” to my publisher, New Society.  If you have ever felt the rush of having a multi-month, all-consuming project lifted off your shoulders with one symbolic act, then you know exactly what this felt like to me.
