Aquaponic Gardening: A Step-by-Step Guide to Raising Vegetables and Fish Together

“This isn’t just another book for dummies; this is a comprehensive handbook on how to grow real food…so meticulously documented, that failure is not an option.” – Jeff Edwards, President of the Progressive Gardening Trade Association (PGTA).

Aquaponics is a revolutionary system for growing plants by fertilising them with the wastewater from fish in a sustainable closed system. A combination of the best of aquaculture and hydroponics, aquaponic gardening is an amazingly productive way to grow organic vegetables, greens, herbs and fruits, while providing the added benefits of fresh fish as a safe, healthy source of protein. On a larger scale, it is a key solution to mitigating food insecurity, climate change, groundwater pollution and the impacts of overfishing on our oceans. This is the definitive do-it-yourself home manual, with an introduction by Charlie Price, head of Aquaponics UK. It focuses on giving you all the tools you need to create your own aquaponic system and enjoy healthy, safe, fresh and delicious food all year round.
