Cooking at 43° North – Sustainable Oyster: A Possible Key to the Future of our Working Waterfront

February 17, 2023 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

So why oysters? Because you like to eat them? You want to hear how they can improve the cleanliness of our waters? You want to help fishermen find an alternative means of harvesting seafood on the coast of Maine? Jim Hays found his answer after leaving his 12-year job as Harpswell Harbor Master, and growing oysters off Orrs Island for the past five years. This session is your chance to dive into all things oysters–from how to safely open them to sampling this fresh, saltwater delicacy, while hearing Jim’s story about oyster farming and how it can help our working waterfront and its fishermen become more sustainable. Space for this workshop is limited so sign up soon!

Please sign up by February 13th by using this link: Slippery, Slurpy, Sustainable Oysters or emailing [email protected], or texting/calling her at 207-330-5416
