Join the Foodshed Forum, Eating with the Ecosystem, and GreenCrab.org to celebrate a valued estuary, food source and cultural legacy – Long Island Sound. Guests will enjoy a locally sourced raw bar, a tasting of green crab and corn chowder, and wine provided by Cap, Cork and Cellar. Followed by a panel discussion that will explore efforts in Connecticut and throughout New England that work to sustain our coastal watershed as a thriving part of our regional food system.
Panelists will talk about the ways consuming ‘overlooked’ and invasive species of fish and shellfish are essential aspects of preserving a healthy ecosystem, and how Long Island Sound enhances cultural connection, and a sense of place.
