A sustainable fishery is one that is harvested at a rate where the fish population does not decline over time because of fishing practices. Sustainable fisheries are critical to protecting our world ocean and feeding future generations. VIMS graduate student Olivia Phillips will talk about the research VIMS is doing to inform fisheries managers, and participants will be able to sample delicious sustainable seafood recipes! 

This is the February installment of the 2019 Discovery Lab Series. Reservations to this free, family-friendly event are required due to limited space. Call 804-684-7061 for further information.
