Trader's Hill Farms a Jville Based Aquaponics Group

Big fan of Aquaponics. There is another really cool Aquaponics operation off Canal in Ponte Vedra called Gyo Greens. I worked with them on their site planning and was really impressed.

There's another innovative project under construction right now in Jax called Atlantic Beach Urban Farms. They will use vertical aeroponics to grow produce.

Exciting to see projects like these in the Jax area.

Who is the she you are talking about? Helga at Gyo Greens?

That would be awesome. I remember mentioning that I was jealous she was building her place in PVB and that she should look in the urban core of Jax.

Angela TenBroeck.  Really amazing operation actually. She has a plan that could drastically aid in cleaning up hogans creek with the process that she uses.  Imagine if that was a semi pristine waterway again over the next ten years.

Brilliant. I hope she knows that she would get quite a bit of support too from people around Jax.
