We have featured community-supported fisheries (or CSFs) frequently in this podcast, especially since this fisheries model has shown remarkable resilience in the wake of COVID19. In this episode, we welcome guest co-host Dr. Joshua Stoll from the University of Maine, who is also a co-founder of the Local Catch network. We talk with Josh about what CSFs are, where they came from, and what they do, and hear from a variety of CSF models. We also feature some important critiques of CSFs, and explore how they are changing in a pandemic world. In this episode, we talk to: Linda Behnken of Alaskans Own (https://alaskansown.com/) Marsh Skeele of Sitka Salmon Shares (https://sitkasalmonshares.com/) Alan Lovewell of Real Good Fish (https://www.realgoodfish.com/) Dan Donovan of Hooked Inc. (hookedinc.ca/) Ben Martens of Maine Coast Fishermen’s Association (https://www.mainecoastfishermen.org/) This episode's music is "Austin 1" by Manwomanchild, available on the Free Music Archive (https://freemusicarchive.org/music/MANWOMANCHILD/Austin_1_single/Austin_1_instrumental) We love to hear your feedback.
