Shellfish Farmers

Maine is a leader in the world of shellfish aquaculture. This is because there is such a close connection between farmers and the scientific community. These partnerships are leading to new understandings of growth rates in preferred growing equipment, creating recycled equipment, and understanding climate change on oyster farms.

Join us to hear how this healthy relationship benefits all of Maine's working shoreline. Guest speakers are Phoebe Jekielek (Hurricane island) with Jordan Kramer (Winnegance Oyster Farm) as well as Jessie Batchelder (Manomet) with Mike Gaffney (Eros Oyster).
