I am interested in the way you made your strawberry tubes. I first found you due to something you posted about making them, complete with pictures and I cannot find that page again. I did bookmark your AP page though. I need to get started tomorrow making the tubes because the Strawberry plants will be on their way here soon.
Hi Barbara,
There were two articles;
Strawberry Towers
More Towers
Good luck

Hi Joseph,
I only erected the greenhouse tunnel for the Uitenhage Aquaponic system. I’m not sure how far the rest of the build is. I will email the contact details to you privately for this site. We do still have a few more spots in our February course.

Hey boet ! ! !
When’s your next course and how much?
I have place to stay in Harkerville, so accommodation ate is not required.
This is fantastic that you are just around the corner….
Do you still have the restaurant?
Hi Maro,
I’m not sure when the next will be as I am on a long-term contract in Paarl. Will keep you posted. Yes, we still have the restaurant called the Old Gaol in Knysna. Pop in and ask for Joan aka “The Child Bride”
Cheers

Greetings, I enjoyed your blog/ website and would like to acquire a copy of your book on aquaponics.
I’ll be in the Joburg/ Pretoria area on March 5&6 for the Undercover Agriculutre Expo. Is there anyway I can get one while there?
I’m coming from Botswana.
Thank you for your help.
