Practitioners needed a new organization to continue collaborating and sought the advice of the Aquaponics Association of the U.S.At the end of the conference the top brains got together to plan the next step, and the EU Aquaponics Association was born!The attendees appointed Ragnheidur Thorarinsdottir from the University of Iceland to be the initial chair of the Association. When the day was over we gathered to celebrate, and the EU growers proved they can party just as well as us in the U.S.Many attendees of the EU conference expressed interest in attending the U.S. conference in Hartford, CT this September 21-23.
