Gathering kelp farmers, salmon fishermen and retailers for a two day immersion in a 2,000 person fishing village to learn about a new fisher-led alliance to create direct sales of wild salmon, sustainably farmed shellfish and kelp to the Lower 48. Over organic oysters, kazunoko kombu and wild salmon, we will hear how cutting out the middle man can create sustainability both economically and ecologically.
