Last week, I had the honor of sponsoring Seafood Day at the State House in the Great Hall of Flags proudly hosted by the Massachusetts Fishermen’s Partnership, the Massachusetts Seafood Collaborative and the Fishing Partnership Support Services.

Proud to present the Gubernatorial Proclamation declaring Wednesday, October 25th, 2023 as Seafood Day in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Seafood is food security.  Over 250 million pounds of seafood is provided from our shores – that’s enough to feed every single person in Boston for an entire year.

Let us continue to work together to show leadership in ocean conservation, environmental stewardship, innovative harvesting, innovative processing, innovative distribution to ensure that everyone has the benefit of the bounty of the waters off of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
