DIY Aquaponics Designs

Project: Milkwood

Posted by Kirsten Bradley over 13 years ago

Recently we ran our first Aquaponics Workshop in Sydney, and it was a very enlightening weekend.

So it turns out that aquaponics doesn’t have to be just a bunch of tanks and grow beds. Not that I mind ‘classic’ aquaponics setups. I just like to know there’s more than one way to grow a fish. And some salad.

Recently we ran our first Aquaponics Workshop in Sydney, and it was a very enlightening weekend. We wanted to run a workshop in aquaponics that focused on how to design and build your own system from recycled materials. And the student designs that came out of the workshop were not only awesome but also achievable!

Class design time!

Explaining aquaponics designs to each other is an important way to get feedback - especially when it's your first design

We can’t wait to see some real-world permutations of these designs created and installed! We hope they get built. But then we know all about trying to get things built. Sometimes it takes a little while…

Just a few more aquaponics resources:

Many thanks to all the students who attended this workshop, and shared your thoughts and enthusiasm on aquaponics! Thanks also to Charlie of ecolicious for heading the workshop and setting us all on the path.

Our next aquaponics workshop will be at Kimbriki on Sydney’s north shore, where Charles has created another funky aquaponics setup from recycled materials, featuring an old boat for a growbed. Looking forward to it!

Charlie from ecolicious explaining the Alexandria Park Community Center aquaponics setup that he designed and built (with a little help from us).

Legend of Badges

Note: The various badges displayed in people profiles are largely honesty-based self-proclamations by the individuals themselves. There are reporting functions users can use if they know of blatant misrepresentation (for both people and projects). Legitimacy, competency and reputation for all people and projects can be evidenced and/or developed through their providing regular updates on permaculture work they’re involved in, before/after photographs, etc. A spirit of objective nurturing of both people and projects through knowledge/encouragement/inspiration/resource sharing is the aim of the Worldwide Permaculture Network.

pri_teacher

PRI Teacher

With the exception of the ‘Member’ who has never taken a PDC, all of the above can apply to become a PRI PDC Teacher. PRI PDC Teachers are those who the PRI recognise, through a vetting board, as determined and competent to teach the full 72-hour course as developed by Permaculture founder Bill Mollison – covering all the topics of The Designers’ Manual as well as possible (i.e. not cherry picking only aspects the teacher feels most interested or competent in). Such teachers also commit to focussing on the design science, and not including subjective spiritual/metaphysical elements. The reason these items are not included in the PDC curriculum is because they are “belief” based. Permaculture Design education concerns itself with teaching good design based on strategies and techniques which are scientifically provable.

PRI PDC Teachers may be given teaching and/or consultancy offerings as they become available as the network grows.
