The only items that we ship to our students and customers is the Portable Farms® Aquaponics Systems technology components. The PFAS Kit box of components is 12″ x 12″ x 8″ (30cm x 30 cm x 20cm) weighing 16lbs (7kilos). If you purchase more than one PFAS Kit, we sometimes place multiple Kits in a single box for shipping. Your organization is responsible for building the greenhouse to the specific climatic conditions of the area in order to keep the temperature within the range of 5 to 40 C. We do not sell, ship or build greenhouses. The materials, lumber and plumbing components for the PFAS Module Grow Tables and Fish Tanks are available locally everywhere in the world.
If you build a commercial PFAS Unit then part of the agreement is for our construction foreman to be on site to train your staff to build the modules so you can continue to construct more modules. The Operators will be trained at a rate of 1 Operator per 10 PFAS Modules through the Aquaponics University Portable Farms Aquaponics Systems Course© and the construction foreman will also demonstrate the skills necessary to successfully operate the installation while he is on site.

We trust this addresses your questions in a adequate fashion and we look forward to having you as a student or client.

Hello,
I came across this website, and I am very interested in owning a system like this one. I have no problems taking the course and paying for the system, but is it possible that the system can be shipped to Caribbean countries such as Trinidad and Tobago?
Thank-you
Adrian,
The AU Course is an email correspondence course and the PFAS Kit that is send to you upon satisfactory completion is only 30cm x 30cm x 20cm and about 7kg. We ship the PFAS Kits all over the world. You will have to pay the shipping because your address is outside the US. The cost to Trinidad and Tobago is approximately US$140. If you go to our main website ( http://portablefarms.com ) and request the Price List (top of the right column) it lists everything contained in the PFAS Kit.
We trust this information is useful and we look forward to having you as a student.

I live in Western Australia and haven’t seen a system like this before. Do you have an Australian franchise, or is the option of receiving the kit still available to us here. Look forward to your response,
Gary,
The PFAS is sold under license and there are currently no License Holders in your area. You certainly can take the Aquaponics University Course and have the PFAS Kit shipped to you. The shipping will be approximately US$185 and so far none of our students have been required to pay customs.

Hi, I’m a student and 2,500 is quite a bit of money. Is there a financing option available?
Corey,
We do accept credit cards if that helps.

Are you in Denver?

Hi all
Am in the caribbean island of Trinidad, I just got my hands on 3 acres of farm land and am very interested in starting an aquaponics system….need any help or advice on a system to hold on that 3 acres size. Q. Is there a skype name i can contact someone at.
Fabien,
Thank you for your inquiry into bringing Portable Farms™ Aquaponics Systems to Trinidad. Three acres is a HUGE aquaponics installation. Please see Technology Licensing page for more information. We are currently rewriting the Licensing Structure to be easier to understand and more lucrative for the License Holders and plan on having that available in a few weeks. Meantime you may want to consider taking the Aquaponics Certification Course to be fully prepared to leverage your land and and ambition.
Talk soon.
Colle Davis, Director
Do you have any kind of unpaid internship or apprenticeship options?
Nathan,
Thank you for asking. At this time we do not have internship or apprenticeship programs available. Perhaps in the future. We will announce these types of changes in our offering in our newsletter.

Where does Aquaponics University get its accreditation from in order to officially certify others to do aquaponics?

Each of them have been explored and in most cases actually tested to see how well they function. The Aquaponics Certification training exposes participants to each of the unique methodologies devised by Portable Farms Ltd. and explains the advantages and disadvantages of each.
