Stan's Provident Living Blog

This is a simple blog to jot down my ideas on 'provident living'.

I have a web site: http://www.geocities.com/stansprovidentliving/pl.html

To me the prefect setup for provident living would be a small farm where I would produce myself the basics for living, food, fuel, etc. It would also be nice if this not only would sustain my family but also generate an income.

Right now my main interest in aquaponics. I would like to put together a system where I would grow tilapia and tomatoes. This system would be something that someone could put together very enexpensively free. I would like to run the system using biogas from my own methane engine.

Right now this is a dream. However, I do have the tomatoes seeds. And one 55 gallon and one 35 gallon plastic drum. I still net to get a pump, gravel, and wood.

I would really like to get some Oreochromis aureus; however, I would be willing to take anything right now. Espcially if I can bread them myself.

I my have to settle using hybrid brim. That would be nice because they do well around 75 degrees.
