More About Zac Hosler’s Aquaponics Farm:

Zac Hosler is a commercial aquaponic farmer in Captain Cook on the Big Island of Hawaii. He earns his living by growing aquaponic produce in commercial aquaponic systems of our design. The links to articles a little further on in this page will give you straightforward numbers for how much Zac works, and how much money he makes from his commercial aquaponic farm.

(Above) Susanne pointing out Zac’s sloped grading; on this site, with solid rock (rock, as in “one big one”, not “rocks”) 3 inches down, this saved him tens of thousands of dollars.

The following are links to articles we’ve published since 2012, detailing Zac’s story. If you want to know what it’s like starting and running a commercial aquaponics farm, you couldn’t have a more realistic or honest assessment than what is written here:

(Above) The high quality of Zac’s aquaponic produce is obvious here.

Variety575px

(Above) The incredible variety of Zac’s aquaponic produce is obvious here (and this is only a SMALL part of what he grows!)

ZacsHoops575px

(Above) Even in sunny Kona, Zac uses a simple hoop house to keep excess rain off his produce and keep the quality high.

You can email Zac if you wish to confirm any of this information. (Compare this to the meager or nonexistent contact information on other “aquaponics consultant’s and teacher’s” sites for people using their technology; they don’t WANT you to contact them!).

A Friendly Testimonial:

Hi Tim, My son, Carl and I attended the training in Texas this year. Just to give you an update. The Sunday after the training, I was coming home from the church I pastor and passed by a co-op that has several greenhouses out front that seemed not to be in use anymore. I drove through to check them out and they were not in use.

A couple of months later,.....we are now the owners of the 7 greenhouses and all that comes with them! We were able to purchase them all for only $2800. My son and I begin deconstructing them on Thursday.

I'm attaching a couple of photos for you to look at them. They have propane heaters, roll up sides, boxes and lights for electricity, fiberglass front and rear walls, and a lot of odds and ends that I believe will come in handy.

I am so glad we listened when you spoke on ways to find greenhouses without spending a fortune. It has been tempting to just "jump in" but I'm glad we waited.

Thank you and many blessings, Rob Rolison

(Below) About $50,000 worth of greenhouses and equipment that Rob Rolison and his son Carl picked up for $2,800 after we explained how to do so in our March 2016 Texas 5-day training. They're going to disassemble them and reassemble at their farm. If they'd bought them new, they be at zero now; another way to look at this is that they have $47,200 to spend on the aquaponics systems to go inside their greenhouses.
