Certainly both is the goal of the aquaponic setup. There are about 50 tilapia in it now, and a grow bed with lettuce and bok choi and similar greens. The plan is to add more plant space to accommodate the growth rate of the fish. When they’re small they eat less and support fewer plants, but as they grow I’ll need more plants to clean the water.

The greenhouse supports many other things, growing 100% of our food isn’t a goal, but supporting our food and having seasonal abundance to sell or give to neighbors is. We start more than we can use, and surplus in seasons is the goal.
