Kodama Koi Farm Blog

Suddenly, I was responsible for a 6,000-gallon pond and 25 koi during a scorching summer, with no idea where to start. But in the face of adversity, we often discover our true strength. With the unwavering support of our family and the Idaho Water Garden and Koi Society, I embarked on a journey of learning. I turned to Kodama for koi food, medications and instructional videos and my confidence began to grow. Maybe I can do this after all!
