Our Farms

We are a collection of aquaponics farms in the central Florida area. Currently we are operating farms in Clermont, Minneola, Winter Garden and Ocoee. 

These farms are a mixture of privately owned and contracts. Our goal is to help people establish farms without having to take on the entire project themselves. Learn about how we partner with people below under "Privately Owned Farms".

Occasionally we hold tours and Nutrition classes. Check out our Facebook page to see when our next event it

PRIVATELY OWNED FARMS

Privately owned aquaponic farms are a wonderful partnering of community and farmer where you are a real part of the evolution of modern agriculture.  Not to mention, having amazing fresh picked produce right in your own backyard is pretty awesome.

Those who buy a Backyard Farm Express aquaponic farm to be built on their personal or business property are considered pretty special.  They purchase the farm to be built on their land, Backyard Farm Express then builds and operates the farm with as little, or as much, participation from the owner as the owner desires.  They get their produce picked fresh in their own backyard as well as a share in the proceeds from the gross sales.

Backyard Farm Express uses the efficiency from operating many local farms with our deep knowledge of aquaponics to help assure that each farm performs properly.  This takes the pressure off the owner to need to have the time and knowledge needed to operate a successful aquaponic farm.

Each farm requires about 50′ x 100′ area on level ground with adequate sun exposure.  Minimal electricity and water is needed and connected to the farm via a simple extension cord and garden hose.  The estimated return on the purchase is about 5 years, which is really good for farming.  We are currently building aquaponic farms in West Orange and South Lake County areas of Central Florida.

If you are considering having an aquaponic farm on your personal, agricultural or commercial property, a good place to start is first making sure that you have the right space for one.  We are currently building farms within about a 30 minute drive from downtown Winter Garden and extending into Clermont.  Drop us a line with the email form below, and when we are back in from the farms we’ll give you a ring.  We look forward to working with you.
