You learn what you need to know to be successful from our training:

You do not want to learn to drive in a loaded 18-wheeler going downhill at night in the rain! You want to start on a sunny day in a Toyota Corolla with an automatic transmission!

In the same way, you do not want to learn how to “drive” in a 20,000-square-foot aquaponics system with a $4,500/month loan payment and $8,000 per month of overhead expenses! It’s got way too much inertia and way too many “moving parts”.

But this is the way all the failures in our “Aquaponics Failures” PowerPoint slideshow started. So we teach you how to start small, and be successful at every step of the journey; whether you are doing backyard-scale aquaponics or large-scale commercial aquaponics.

The 3-day Aquaponics Technology portion of this training is only $995; you may attend just those three days if you already know all you need to know about greenhouses. If you add the Solar Greenhouse day and the Profitable Aquaponics day to the training, it’s $1,000 additional, for a total of $1,995 for five days of training, which includes unlimited lifetime technical support for both your aquaponics and greenhouse.

Also, you get a 50% discount for each additional person who signs up at the same time (only $447.50 for just the 3-day AP course, or just $997.50 for all five days, for each additional person!), this discount is given in our shopping cart when you check out. We’re doing our best to make this affordable for you, yet at the same time we are packing everything we know about aquaponics and greenhouses into this course.

If you want to absolutely reserve your spot in the next Texas aquaponics training, you can sign up now, and even receive all your manuals and other course materials before the course so you can get started right away (for an additional charge).

VETERAN’S DISCOUNT: We appreciate the people who defend our Constitution; we offer a 50% discount on EVERY product we sell to military personnel: whether active duty or retired, even Coast Guard! However, if we published signup links for veteran’s discounts, EVERYONE would be a vet, and we’d spend the rest of our lives trying to get them to send us their ID cards.

So, to take advantage of this discount, email me (Tim) at [email protected] (take out the SPAM!), with a photocopy of your military ID card, and tell me what you’d like to purchase; I’ll email you instructions on how to do it.

Call Tim at 808-640-1981 or email us  if you have questions that this page can’t answer.

“I did a lot of research on the other people offering aquaponics trainings nationwide. Funny thing is, a lot of them went to your training, whether they admit it or not. I figured I would rather go to the source, especially since you guys were able to get organically certified. I have also been after the business plan which ya’ll provide, which saved me a ton of work.

I also like the whole approach you guys take. Not afraid of competition so to speak, what with allowing your students to train using your materials and offer your competitors websites. Although I had already been to all of those sites, it says a lot about your integrity and faith in your product. It’s admirable and I noticed.” — Shawn Marasso, Ector, Texas, April 12, 2014, who attended our Texas Training, May, 2014.

(Left) An economical Aquaponic Solar Greenhouse that will grow year-round under most weather conditions experienced in Texas.

Held from Monday through Friday, this course is designed to allow you to get the most out of the course and not need to be away from your busy life longer than necessary. With its emphasis on profitable commercial aquaponics in energy-efficient greenhouses, is unlike any other aquaponics training available.

You receive our 122-page “Micro System” manual, which covers 64 and 128 square foot backyard systems, plus our 235-page E-Book “Aquaponics The EASY Way”, which covers small tabletop systems of 3 to 18 square feet, as free downloads the moment you register for the course. Using these books allows you to prestudy before the course so you arrive with a higher level of understanding and get more out of the course itself.

(Left) Another Aquaponic Solar Greenhouse suitable for most weather conditions experienced in Texas.

We are limiting this training to 25 persons, so that everyone will get a chance to have all their questions about aquaponics, greenhouses, and making a career with them answered; so sign up early if you want to come!

As soon as you register for this course, you will receive maps and accommodations information.

And if you’re growing in the mountains somewhere in the “Snow Country”, you can use our Chinese greenhouse designs such as this one: Randy Campbell’s 200-square foot “Gen 2” Micro Aquaponic Solar Greenhouse (of our design), which is shown in the snow in Tennessee, Winter 2012-13. Outside air was 24 degrees (plus some wind chill), air temp inside was 74 degrees, water temp 72. I turned into an icicle because I was the only one stupid enough to be outside standing in freezing sleet taking this photo (I grew up in California, and never knew what that word meant before this!)

Our Aquaponic Solar Greenhouse in Hawaii! We don’t need this much greenhouse in our climate, but needed to build and operate it to understand the technology, so we could help our mainland Friends who DO need greenhouses!

Our refund policy for our live trainings and all our DIY packages is on this webpage: (http://www.friendlyaquaponics.com/refund-policy/). Please read it, and if you do not agree with it, please do not purchase from us!
