"As a professional pond building company, A Part of the Forest (John Winfield), is our go-to source for Koi fish and all aquatic critters. John has a great selection of fish at all price points and has great knowledge of all pond products and plants as well. All of our customers love the great service that they get from John. Whenever they have a question, he is the first person that they call. We highly recommend A Part of the Forest for your fish and pond needs."

"A very cool, easy to navigate web site. John's passion for what he does is evident and he is a wealth of knowledge. His Koi are just as colorful and healthy as can be so I know he knows his business. He has a nice selection of plants for the pond as well. I would recommend him as a good source of products, services and Koi."

"I met John through his Craigslist ad. I was having problems with keeping my pond free from nitrates. John recommended some organic digester and water neutralizer and he asked me to come back a couple of weeks later to retest the water. I noticed the change in my pond within a few days as the water became clear from nitrates and ammonia. He is very helpful and knowledgeable about marine life and sustainability. With John's knowledge and guidance, my pond is free of all toxins and my crawfish are healthy and active. I keep in touch with John on a regular basis and he answers any questions that I might have. John also provides me with a high protein food that my crawfish love. John has become a really good friend of mine."

"I saw John's add in the local paper and I visited him to buy some fish and plants for my fountain/pond, I had goldfish in there but I wanted some Koi. He was very helpful and knowledgeable. He tested the water sample that I had brought and he told me that it was really high in nitrates and ammonia and he would not be selling me fish because they would not survive. John recommended some organic digester and water neutralizer and he asked me to come back a couple of weeks later. I noticed the change in my pond within a few days as the water became clearer and my goldfish started to become more active. I came back and he retested my water and the level of toxins had dropped to a safe level. He then was satisfied with the water quality and sold me some beautiful Koi as well as some water lilies, water lettuce, and mosquito fish.' With John's knowledge and guidance, I have the pond that I always wanted and I am even thinking about adding a secondary pond which he has offered to help me set up in the near future."
