Please join us on September 20th at Innis Arden Cottage in celebrating the Long Island Sound, a valued estuary, food source and cultural legacy. Guests will enjoy a locally sourced raw bar provided by Atlantic Clam Farms, and a taste of green crab, an invasive yet tasty species. Wine will be provided by Cap, Cork and Cellar.  A panel discussion exploring efforts in Connecticut and throughout New England working to sustain our coastal watershed will follow.
 
Panelists will share the ways consuming ‘overlooked’ and invasive species of fish and shellfish are essential to preserving a healthy ecosystem, and how Long Island Sound enhances cultural connection, and a sense of place. 
 
The Foodshed Forum acknowledges the Siwanoy, among the Munsee Lenape Indigenous Nation, as the first stewards of Long Island Sound and recognizes their place within its cultural legacy.
