Just checking in! I was the summer intern with Twin Fin this past summer and I thought I would just post about the progress made so far on my own Aquaponics system here at Luther College. I will never be able to fully explain how grateful I am for the knowledge and support you guys provided me with in one short summer. I hope to keep pushing Aquaponics to its limits and educate as many people as possible about its benefits and long term implementation. Thank you all again for an awesome experience, I'll be sure to keep you posted!

We can't thank everybody enough for all that they have contributed to our team for the past 2+ years.

We are announcing that it is time for our team to move on from what we have started with Twin Fin. We have reached so many goals, learned so many things, and met so many wonderful people throughout these years. Even as Twin Fin ceases to exist as a business, the legacy of this project will live on. We are excited about our summer intern applying his new Twin Fin experience to the starting of his own aquaponics project at Luther College.

We're exploring how to make the most use of our system by working with non profits to see if it can benefit their mission, but we will also open up a list of goods to potential buyers.

TL:DR - Twin Fin is closing, want to buy some of our stuff?
