Community Supported Fishery’s – Membership-driven fishery starts taking orders

September 4, 2016 Mid Atlantic

A new community-supported fishery has opened in Carteret County, with a focus on providing seafood to local residents and visitors. On Aug. 27, Taylor Chadwick, a commercial fisherman from Beaufort and owner of Chadwick’s Seafood, officially began his own community-supported fishery. This type of fishery operates by having customers sign up for a membership and participating fishermen provide locally caught seafood to the members. An example of one such fishery, which was also started in Carteret County, is Walking Fish, but while that community fishery charges a monthly fee for its seafood and focuses on inland sales, Mr. Chadwick’s fishery charges for individual purchases and focuses on the local seafood market. According to the fishery’s website, chadwickseafood.com, the fishery will operate from March to December. Mr. Chadwick said members who sign up on the website may start placing orders for seafood on Monday. Read the story here 12:46

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing. Hence the term “overfished.” Hence the mandated knee jerk reaction of the fisheries managers to not enough fish; cut back on fishing. What of other factors? They don’t count. It’s all about fishing, because fishing is all that the managers can control; it’s their Maslow’s Hammer. When it comes to the oceans it seems as if it’s about all that the industry connected mega-foundations that support the anti-fishing ENGOs with hundreds of millions of dollars a year in “donations” are interested in controlling.
