By advocating for and supporting sustainable fishing practices, we can send a powerful message to larger corporations and industries that profit-driven decisions must be balanced by a deep concern for the impact on our environment. We owe it to future generations to do everything we can to protect our local fisheries and guarantee access to fresh, healthy, and sustainable seafood for years to come.
