Author Biography
Marcelina Noss Was born in Leyte, Philippines to a province family of 9 children and two parents. Her father was a very content farmer working the land with a song in his heart. The family primarily grew corn, tobacco, rice, coconuts and other staples using primitive farming methods. Early in her life, Marcelina dabbled in her father's farming, but was drawn more to the market places where she would sell her father's tobacco and rice to villagers. Her mother was a strong woman as well as a naturalist where she practiced herbal medicine and mastered healing techniques. After high school graduation, she attended college at Leyte National Agricultural College, Leyte, Philippines where she earned her bachelor degree in Agriculture and Education. During the next 15 years in the United States, Marcelina worked in the health industry living a life of modesty and a continual pursuit of a higher education. She began to return to her roots and started to enjoy gardening once again. She built a greenhouse, raised Tilapia, where her first experience with Aquaponics pushed her to learn more alternative growing techniques. It was with much anticipation to teach these techniques to people that do not have a lot of space, machines, money or water so that they may harvest productive crops of vegetables to feed their families. This book allows Marcelina to share many of her successes with the reader.
