THE MAINE AQUACULTURE CO-OP

Maine Aquaculture is Maine’s first aquaculture cooperative, with a board and membership comprised of Maine fishermen and aquaculturists. They seek to expand Maine’s seafood-producing industries through the thoughtful integration of fishing and farming, diversify income opportunities for Maine fishermen, maintain a robust working waterfront, and strengthen coastal communities. By working cooperatively, they are better able to solve technical difficulties, share best practices and resources, and leverage buying and marketing power.
