Vote for Backyard Aquaponics in the Peoples Choice Awards

Hey everyone! If you are familiar with the Telstra Business Awards you may be aware that Backyard aquaponics Pty Ltd has just submitted an entry and the awards process is in two parts. This is where you guys can help, Backyard Aquaponics may be so rude as to ask for your support with the "People's Choice Award". Their aim, as always is to spread awareness about the benefits of aquaponics. There are still many, many people who have not heard about aquaponics and with the help of these awards they can all help to raise that awareness. Please have a read of their business profile and if you support what they do, then vote for them, share on your walls and like them on Facebook.
