We will be holding an exclusive screening of the movie "The End of the Line," the world's first major documentary about the devastating effect of overfishing. The screening will be held Wednesday, Oct. 21 at 7:00 p.m. in Love Auditorium on Duke's West Campus. Click here to learn more about the movie and screening details.

Our Walking Fish community-supported fisheries (CSF) pilot project launched with great success on Sept. 17. We sold a total of 401 shares, equaling 507 pounds of local seafood each week.

We had a great time at this year's 23rd Annual North Carolina Seafood Festival on Oct. 2-4, 2009, located on the Morehead City waterfront. We sold plenty of red drum fish tacos.
