Hello Everyone! Thank you for allowing me to join AA. My name is Mondora Tingle I and reside in Dayton, Ohio. I have been very interested in Aquaponics for several years, and have sought all avenues at my disposal to continue to learn about it. I live in an area that has been identified as a ‘food desert’ and I would like to address this problem with the creation of an urban aquaponics center. This project would provide food and education to my community.
For the last year, for on-hand learning, I have established a home aquaponics system with a 75 gallon aquarium, a sump tank, and a swirl filter to grow lettuce and other vegetables. This system is working great, and I believe it is beneficial to prepare me to initiate a larger system.
It is my hope that by joining this group, I will have an increased opportunity to network as well as continue to expand in my education in this area.
