2026 Living City Workshop Series: Living Water, The Aquaponics Cycle in Action
$15.00
Description
Step inside the living ecosystem of our newly installed tilapia-based aquaponics system at Living City Farms and discover how fish, microbes, and plants work together in one beautifully balanced cycle.
In this beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how aquaponics transforms fish waste into plant nutrition through the natural nitrogen cycle. We’ll break down the science in an approachable way—no prior experience required—while standing right beside a working system.
During this interactive one-hour class, you will:
• Explore the full aquaponics cycle from feed to harvest
• Understand ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, and why balance matters
• Test real water parameters and see how we monitor system health
• Learn the role of tilapia, beneficial bacteria, oxygen, and plant uptake
• Discuss common system challenges and how to troubleshoot them
This workshop is designed for curious adults, homesteaders, gardeners, educators, and anyone interested in regenerative growing systems. Whether you’re dreaming of building your own setup or simply want to understand how living water works, this class will give you both clarity and confidence.
Come ready to observe, ask questions, and engage with a system that demonstrates closed-loop farming in action.
