Amazing Aquaponics and Hydroponics (April 4, 2020)
Aquaponic and hydroponic farming are incredibly important topics for everyone. Hydroponics uses water systems to grow plants while aquaponic systems couple aquatic animals (usually fish) with plants to establish a sustainable and productive agricultural system. We will explore both and create a homemade tabletop hydroponic system for you to take home!
