This webinar will provide the background that you need to help your students gain the confidence they need to purchase and prepare U.S. farm-raised seafood.  To maintain good health, Americans should increase their consumption of fish and seafood products.  Almost 2/3rds of all seafood consumption takes place away from home in restaurants and other foodservice establishments. Cooking seafood at home can help end mealtime boredom and provide important health benefits, but many people don’t feel comfortable purchasing and preparing seafood.  This module will provide the background that you need to help your students gain the confidence they need to make U.S. farm-raised seafood a regular part of their diet.

This webinar will provide important background information for educators and answer basic questions about health and nutrition.  Join us and have all of your questions about U.S. farm-raised seafood answered.

Presenter:  Linda ODierno has over 25 years of experience working with the fish and seafood industry and is currently the Outreach Specialist for the National Aquaculture Association.
