About Bigelow Brook Farm
Bigelow Brook Farm, a northeast Connecticut-based farm, has been sharing its aquaponic adventures through video since July 2015.

This journey, documented over seven years, provides a unique and in-depth look into the challenges and rewards of building and maintaining a successful aquaponic system. The farm has cultivated a dedicated community of 104 members, with 36 actively supporting their work through Patreon. While their exact income remains private, Patreon estimates suggest earnings are somewhere between $37 and $740, reflecting the early stage of their monetization efforts. The farm's dedication to transparently documenting its successes and setbacks in aquaponics sets it apart, offering valuable learning opportunities for aspiring aquaponic growers and enthusiasts.
