March - Central Florida Koi Show 10-12. Read more…
Be sure to visit Brad’s booth at the Central Florida Koi Show. We have had an exceptional opportunities to visit Chevy’s Quality Koi Farm in Ocala, owned and operated by Brad Cumpton. Brad has done an excellent job of researching and building the necessary facilities for a successful koi farm. There was a lot to see from a standard 100,000+ koi pond at the front of the property to sales vats, breeding tanks, and mud ponds.
HIs home is literally surounded by koi! Koi for sale are reasonably priced and range from some very nice pond grade koi up through Brad’s “Breeder’s Choice” selection including many show quality Kohaku, Kujaku, Kumonryu and other varieties. Prices for most koi are posted at each vat. His production of longfin koi, and doitsu and gin rin types is extraordinary. Bring a cooler even if you don’t plan to buy koi as you will be tempted for sure!
