Big Catch
Carolyn’s background is in Education for 13 years. She has been an independent consultant for 8 years traveling nationally working with the Department of Education in many states.
Ed’s background is in commercial fishing. He has been a commercial fisherman for about 25 years. Fishing out of Seabrook, Virginia, New Jersey.
Putting the two backgrounds together, they began talking about how difficult it is to get local products out to local consumers. They also realized how little the general public knew about what was happening to the fishing industry.
Fishermen are not famous for speaking on their behalf. They are hard working people that want to go fishing and make a living. Carolyn hopes to help local fishermen by helping educate the public about local fishing.
The fish market is one way in which they are trying to inform. Carolyn and Ed are trying to carry as much local fish as they can in their market. They hope to connect the local community and local fisherman through fresh, local fish!
