Central European Aquaponic Jamboree 2012

Since last year AP has boomed and not just in Hungary but all around Europe. Now we are ready for the second Central European Aquaponic Jamboree and this time its accomplished with a full AP training with respected experts on all field, an AP workshop, and a dream. A dream of educating a 100 AP ambassadors, donating a 100 mini AP systems to primary schools all around Europe, and spreading the organic and simple agricultural production system called the aquaponics.

We are calling all European AP friends to join us our mission and dream.
Let’s make it come true together!
Lets meet on CEAJ 2012!

Matej's system: http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=2496

There is no stopping you Peter, good luck spreading the word

I actually have a few other things to do in my hometown during those days but I could try and move those around a bit and come at least for a couple of days.
Is tht option open, Peter? I mean if I were to come only say friday and saturday?
Regards,
Tojo

Yes, we can do that or you! But if you could make it for the 3 days you could come with Matej and save on travel...

That is absolutely right, I will have to thoroughly consider my choices then.
I still have to "meet" and "visit" Matej anyway (damn if only days were 48hrs eh?)

After some uncertainty on the way, we are finallizing the things to be done for the jamboree. It seems we will build arroung 25-30 of these mini systems

Booking is still open, and we can help organizing your travel as well, AP enthusisats are ready to pick you up at BUD airport and drive you to the jamboree and back. So is anyone is still hasitates go for it!

I dare to dream big!

So I got a phone call, and an e-mail from the Hungarian Rural Ministry (agricultural ministry) and now we can say:

"CEAJ 2012 is patroned by Dr. Sándor Fazekas Hungarian Rural Development Minister."

Good work Zsazsa

Congratulation a great effort achieving results. Well done.

Central Europen Aquaponic Jamboree 2012



13 hours of presentation
39 participants + a dog
36 mini systems
3 days of aquaponics

For the first look we are completely different in all aspects, but in a few second can find out that our harts beat the same, and our thoughts echo from eachothers tounge.

We have formed a hardcore enthusast, an aquaponic band of brothers and systers, and how it happened was magical. It was all arround in the air like it was perfectly natural. I had the same overwheling feeling again like last year.

Meeting a fellow aquaponic enthusast is priceless, for everithing else... you know.

I will write a more detailed report soon. Presentaions, will be available free online in pdf and video as well. We have recorded a tonns reports for a short reportfilm on aquaponics, jamboree and school systems. This too will also be available for free, just have to do the post prouction.

Applause!

I think you win the prize for "most aquaponic systems in the one photo".. Nice work guys...

Any chance of some more detail on those little systems?
