The UNITED Table – Shell Shock: Conversations on Crustacean Sustainability in New England

  • The United Theater 5 Canal Street Westerly, RI, 02891 United States (map)

Please join us on September 12th at 7:00 at the UNITED Table for the next event in our series with Eating With the Ecosystem and the United Theater as we host a panel and tasting event showcasing our local Crustaceans. From Blue Crabs and Stonington Red Shrimp, to the now infrequent in our waters, elegant Lobster, to the invasives taking over like the ever present Green Crab we will talk and learn about these prehistoric, delicious “bugs.” 

With every UNITED Table we work to provide the science, market, cooking and catching of our local seafood. As always we’ll have a taste of some of these delicacies and talk about how we can better serve our ecosystem, economy and health with local seafood. 

The UNITED Table series is a new culinary entertainment series presented by The United Theatre to celebrate the food we eat and the creative, hardworking people who take the care and thought in preparing and presenting that food, preserving its history, and filling our lives with the tastes, smells, and experiences that bring people together. Through conversations, tastings, book talks, food fests, and screenings from the culinary cineverse, The UNITED Table invites you to pull up a chair. Bon appétit!

Eating with the Ecosystem is a Rhode Island Non-profit focused on a place based approach to seafood in New England where we have great opportunities to support our local economy, our environment and our health through the sustainable harvest of fish. www.eatingwiththecosystem.org
