The annual three-day Putting Up Shoots aquaponics conference will feature top aquaponics experts from around the world; tours of commercial aquaponics operations; a vendor showroom with the latest aquaponics technology; live builds and hands-on demonstrations; and interactive discussions and social events for aquaponics growers of all stripes to collaborate.

The Conference will feature four learning tracks: Commercial Aquaponics; Community Aquaponics; Aquaponics Research & Food Safety; and Aquaponics in STEM Education.

The conference takes place September 21-23, 2018 at the Hilton Hartford Hotel, Hartford, CT. The Aquaponics Association’s annual conference is to advance the practice of aquaponics by connecting growers, researchers and enthusiasts from around the world.

Last year in Portland, Oregon the Aquaponics Association’s annual conference theme was Putting Down Roots, with over 250 guests from over 10 countries. This year they are crossing the country for Putting Up Shoots, signifying the next step of the practice’s growth.

The Conference will unite guests from all corners of the aquaponics practice, including: growers, aquaculture professionals, equipment suppliers, teachers, students, researchers, regulators, policy-makers, investors, chefs and more.
