It’s Farm Friday, and I would like to share some shots of the gorgeous farm that we are staying at….soon to be the place we are no longer staying at, but visiting, since next week we will be in our new place!!
Green Acres Organics DIY Small Commercial Aquaponics System
Is it possible to build your own small scale commercial aquaponics system without costing you an arm and a leg? How much should it cost to build it yourself? How much money can you expect to earn? Where do you sell your produce? Where do you go to learn more about all this stuff?
We grab hold of Aquaponics kit builder and teacher Murray Hallam and get the low down on his training course and how much money a small DIY commercial Aquaponics system would cost you to set up. His answers may surprise you.
Murray Hallam speaks to Frank Gapinski of Ecofilms about his commercial aquaponics course, who its for and how much such a system would cost to build.
Any guesses as to what this is? This is the first step of my new project: a small-scale grain thresher. The picture is of the rotating drum that will knock the seed heads off the stalk, whether it be wheat, rye, oats, buckwheat, or even quinoa. The grains will then fall through a couple of screens to be gathered up at the bottom. It will be powered by a foot treadle in the front where the grains are fed in.
I don’t quite know what it is, but there is just something about these Tiny Houses that are just very charming. The photo of them in the snow makes them seem so cozy and warm. They are modeled after some huts in India and are used as mini cabin for cross country skiing. They come with heat, LED lights and solar ventilation.

It’s a mere 9 days until we get into our house. I am counting the days, I can’t wait, it’s going to be so exciting to finally have our own place. And to know that the banging upstairs isn’t from the third floor neighbours, it’s just one of us making some noise hanging pictures.
