Happy Oktoberfish! Here at Food & Water Watch, we’ve declared October the official month to celebrate sustainable seafood as we work hard to protect our oceans and ensure that consumers have access to delicious, affordable seafood that‚ healthy for them and the environment. With that fall chill in the air, were all starting to get excited about festive, food-related occasions, so join Food & Water Watch this month to learn more and get involved in this crucial movement. We’ve kicked off our month with our Frugal Fish contest, where were asking savvy cooks to whip up a sustainable seafood dinner using fish off our Smart Seafood Guide for under $25. We’ve already started receiving entries, and the contest runs until midnight EST on October 16. Also, each week throughout the month well feature the story of a fisherman or someone in the fishing industry who‚ working hard to bring good seafood to consumers in a sustainable way. Check out our weekly profiles starting on October 2 and see how you can join crucial fights alongside them. Stay tuned for more fish fun from Food & Water Watch throughout Oktoberfish, and feel free to post a comment letting us know how you are celebrating sustainable seafood this month! – Erica Schuetz No comments yet.
