Maine's Oyster Story: Past, Present, and Future

Description

Jaclyn Robidoux and Annie Fagan, marine extension associates from the Maine Sea Grant program, will take you through the past, present and future of Maine's oyster story. We'll begin with the history of Wabanaki shellfish harvesters, then discuss today's thriving oyster aquaculture industry and share some innovations coming down the pipeline.
