🍂🎏 Fall Harvest is almost here at Purdin Koi Farm!

After a full season of growth in our ponds, it’s finally time to bring them in. This is one of the most exciting times of the year!

Years of experience, quality genetics, and plenty of Louisiana sunshine go into every pond. Now we get to see the results.

Save the Date and join us! See you at the farm!

What a season it’s been in the mudponds!

These photos capture some of the highlights, from tiny fry being released into the mudponds, to months of natural growth in Louisiana’s nutrient-rich waters. Along the way, we’ve monitored water quality, feeding, and caring for the next generation of Purdin Koi!

Life around the mudponds is full of surprises. Birds are a constant presence throughout the growing season. And while seining day always brings a few unexpected moments, this year included one catch we usually don’t expect — an alligator! We safely relocated this little guy away from the mudponds.

Every harvest tells a story and we look forward to continue watching this generation grow!

Which photo is your favorite from this mudpond season? Let us know in the comments!
