As we rev up our PDXSeafood campaign one of our primary supporters, the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch Program, has been busy cooking up some sustainable seafood support down in California! Their annual event, Cooking for Solutions, is a 3-day celebration of sustainable seafood where celebrity chefs prepare food and host events at the aquarium to highlight just how delicious and amazing sustainable seafood can be.

Such a great event! And it is only a small part of what Seafood Watch does to promote sustainable seafood. We are so lucky to be one of their Conservation Outreach Partners, and to be able to use all of the solid research they have done developing their seafood guides in our PDXSeafood program. Want to make sustainable seafood part of your routine? Visit their Seafood Recommendations page to look up your favorite fish, download your own pocket guide, or get the smartphone app. So many ways to be a savvy seafood consumer!
