List of Community Supported Fisheries

  • Shrimp Community Supported Fishery

    Penobscot East is working with the Stonington Lobster Co-op, and several local fishermen to start a Stonington-base Community Supported Fishery (CSF) program for shrimp. Penobscot East is also working with two fishermen from MDI who will operate a CSF from that island.
