Maine Coast Fishermen’s Association to offer educational tools to schools, community members

TIMES RECORD • September 14, 2021

Students and families across the state will learn about local fish species they might not be familiar with through a Maine Coast Fishermen’s Association program. The effort is a part of the Fishermen Feeding Mainers initiative, where MCFA buys seafood directly from fishermen and donates it to area schools and food banks. The recipe cards with nutritional information about hake, monkfish and pollock will be available to people through food banks. While the cards will be printed in English and translated into four different languages – Portuguese, Spanish, Fresh, and Arabic, the translated versions will be available only online.
